What do put in an if else command if i want the "if" to just make the script continue to run?

You can always leave your if statements empty. I recommend you to alter your if condition though, to run when the script shouldn't continue as usual. E.g. Instead of
var i = 1;
if (i == 0) {}
else { // something }
try doing
if (i != 0) { // something }

The 'if/else' statement is linked in one way only: you cannot use 'else' alone ( as it's non sense ), but it's allowed to use only the 'if' ^^
Personnally, rather than testing the condition and put a long code in the 'if' body, I prefer test the inverse condition, and exit from here... so next code is never executed if the ( inverse ) condition is true, and 'else' is implicite rather than eplicit:
if (myCondition==false) {
return;
}
/* code to execute if myCondition == true */

You could always put a 'not' in front of your comparison. Something like:
if !(x == y) {
// code that used to be in the else statement
}
