Long time no update. I won’t bore you with the details… yet. Â
What I need to talk about for the moment is this thing — TorsionÂ
I don’t really know why or how I managed to script in Torquescript for so long before finding this nice little IDE, but let me just say that it is a beautiful thing. Up until tonight, I’ve been using jedit with a plugin for the syntax particular to Torque Rinds (my happy pet name for torque scripts) — but I might as well have been using notepad. Syntax coloring is pretty special, don’t get me wrong… but now I’ve got all my favorite features from Microsoft Visual Studio; Most importantly, I’ve got Intellisense and the ability to step through the script while it’s running to debug. Also you can double click on any error messages in your output stream and it pops you right over to the line of code it came from. There’s even a call stack.Â
This is a lovely bit of software.
Thank you, Sickhead Games, for creating such a thing.
