- Diagnostic Report previously only scanned layout (scene) events and external events for validation errors. This PR extends the report to also scan events inside extension functions - including top-level ("free") functions, behavior functions, and object functions - detecting missing instructions and invalid parameters.
- Store-installed extensions are excluded from the scan
- Disabled ("commented out") events and their sub-events are skipped everywhere, not just in extensions.
- This will track alive/dead instances of some C++ classes and will throw a JS error in case of usage of a already destroyed object from JavaScript. This should avoid crashing/corrupting the wasm/C++ side by calling a method on an object already destroyed. Instead the exception stays on JS side, without reaching the C++ implementation.
Only show in developer changelog
- For advanced use cases where it's important to run events on each instance of an object with an ordering, the For Each can now have an ordering: an expression can be written and will be evaluated for each instance separately. The For Each will then execute for each instance in the order of the result of the expression.
- It's possible to change the direction (ascending or descending)
- It's also possible to give a limit (for example, 1 will allow to pick just the instance with the highest/lowest value for the expression).
- Examples are provided in the UI for common use cases (maximum value of a variable, health points, ammo, distance to another object...)
- Also fix generated code for events (and Else) not working with 'use strict' (only show in developer changelog)
- Also improve the UI to not show horizontal bars for disabled events and comments
- Add a shortcut (**F7** by default) and command in the command palette to open diagnostic report at any time
- The report now scans project for missing actions/conditions/expressions from extensions and reports invalid parameters (shown with red underline in Events Sheet)
- Click on error location to navigate directly to the event
- "For Each Child Variable" now also properly support choosing local variables for the variable to iterate on, and for the variable where to store the child and the optional variable where to store the name.
- The loop counter starts from 0 and is automatically increased by 1 each time the event is repeated.
* For now, this is limited to instances inside custom objects. This will be made available in the future for all instances in scenes if this works well.
* This is not finished yet:
- Documentation needs to be written.
- Menu item (and shortcut?) to quickly toggle between a standard event and a else event must be added so it's easy to switch from one to the other.
- Design must be adapted to make it clearer that the else event is "linked" to the previous one and is not run if the previous event is run.
- Extensions, behaviors and objects lists now follow the same layout
- Assets are suggested for most custom objects provided by extensions
- Also fix private objects not appearing in the list from within the
extension
