I cannot find a "ANDALSO" type operator in the documentation. Is there anything similar to it so that when the first condition is false, the second condition isn't evaluated?

For example, I would like to do the following:


As you can see, using just an AND, the SPRITE X command will cause the program to exit raising an exception(if the sprite doesn't exist). I know I could nest two if statements, but I was hoping there was a less messy way to do this.

There's a direct equivalent of what you want for AND (AND with shortcut evaluation):


There is no short equivalent of 'OR with shortcut evaluation'.
