Ideas for Game Editor evolution.

More Feature Requests --> will they never end... ;-)

Postby Just4Fun » Wed Feb 09, 2005 3:50 pm

I'm not sure if these requests are too much work or if anyone besides me notices tedious little details like this:

1. In Actor Control, have a tooltip popup that shows the number of the
slider transparency as the slider increments or decrements. Same for
Z Depth.

2. Show the name of the current game that has been loaded on the GE
title bar (use "Untitled"as a default name). Once a file is named,
replace the default name "Untitled" with the game that has been
saved.*See Notepad for example title bar. (PS I love the "recent files" addition to GE)

3. Error messages that make sense to a new user trying to understand
scripting. Instead of "illegal cast operation" define the problem in
understandble language and tell the user what to do to avoid the
problem. (An age old programmers problem...maybe there is no easy fix)
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.

Man. When I got here you couldn't use actor variables or cut/copy/paste within the script editor!

GE is evolving rapidly...
