Afternoon All.

I would like to learn gCode the conditional stuff not just move from A to B and I'm a little nervous of trying out on my printer although that might be the only way to do it.

There seem to be a number of videos, what resources wold you recommend?

Many Thanks aamcle

Conditional GCode is not a standard part of GCode. There are several different versions of it. Which version you have (if any) depends on what firmware you are running. For example:

RepRapFirmware: [docs.duet3d.com]
LinuxCNC: [linuxcnc.org]

Large delta printer [miscsolutions.wordpress.com], E3D tool changer, Robotdigg SCARA printer, Crane Quad and Ormerod

Disclosure: I design Duet electronics and work on RepRapFirmware, [duet3d.com].

... if you are halfway experienced in programming, then you can modify existing or even create new g-codes or "macros" by implementing them into the parser (firmware) - it's not this hard to do ...
