Does anyone know what extension lets you code special functions into the menu? Like, it lets you add options into the system menu in the simulator?

That’s not the one but I have that functionality in my [JavaScript Extras extension](https://forum.makecode.com/t/making-an-extension-for-every-javascript-exclusive-feature-i-can-think-of/36766) extension. That’s a lot of extra blocks to add just for that one block though.
