copy & paste glitch in script editor

Postby stevenp » Thu Feb 21, 2008 4:09 am

has anyone noticed a copy & paste glitch in script editor?

iv encountered a few glitches

- 1 -
copy and paste from one script to another does not copy or paste everything you told it too

-2 -
after pasting something that was copied, the lines are out of syncronization and typing something on line 4 will show up on line 5 even tho your typing cursor blinker thing is on line 4 ( jk3 said sometihng similar to this )

- 3 -there was 1 more but i cant rememebr what it was

Yes I've got the same problem. Especially after just pasting something and then trying to copy some of that and pasting again.

I tend to use a different editor and then pasting it into GE's script editor. GE uses tab in a different way so I do almost everything with spaces.

To avoid the abnormal copy thing, just cut it. Thats what I always do. and sometimes, when you can't write on a line (It just moves the 'invisible' horizontal scroll bar) press home, then end.

also if you do an "if"-condition, and write, like
Code: Select all
if(var==1)
{

and then select a code from the menu
it will do like
Code: Select all
if(var==1)
{stopSound(music);

when you wanna write this "}" bracket, it won't write it down, you have to hit the "erase" key once to be able to continue writing
(i know, I won't pick the stopSound function from the menu, too easy, just a stupid example :wink: )
but I would like to know: what is it you have to erase???
