Suggestion about Script Editor

[densming]

The built-in script editor is GREAT!  When typing a function or variable name, it brings up a list of all the names that match what's been typed so far.  If the desired function/variable is highlighted in the list, I can just hit Enter to type the rest of the name.

However, it would be nice if it would auto-complete the name even if I typed other characters as well (like space, brackets, parentheses, etc.).  This is the way some other programming environments work, and I've gotten used to it.

Hehe, glad you like it.

The auto-complete is currently completed by pressing enter or tab. Is there a complete list of other specific characters you would want?

Or just Space and Open Parenthesis?

Personally I've always used Tab in other environments so I hadn't noticed

In addition to tab and enter:

space, "(" (for functions), "[" (for arrays), "." (for structs)

Those are the ones I use most.

It would be useful if the contents of the global script header were available as auto-completions.
So any #defines and functions in the global header could be auto-completed.

That would speed up my game writing immensely

Thanks,
