Which editor for TorqueScript?

by Colossai Studios · in Torque Game Engine · 03/15/2005 (11:02 am) · 12 replies

I've used jEdit now for a couple of weeks, and it's not up to the task. It's good when you know exactly which file to edit, but otherwise quite useless. Almost like notepad with colors.

I need an editor where i can easily search through all the scripts, just like 'Search solution' in Visual Studio. Also, automatically getting a list of an objects methods when writing a dot after the name would be very useful. And of course, debugging.

Is there any Editor around doing this? What are you others using?

I bought the Brain Editor Pro a couple of weeks ago. It is a really good editor. If it doesn't do what you want or you need a feature that might help, just ask him on the forum. He has been adding alot of features for Torque and is asking what features people want. Here is the link.

Brain Editor Pro is IMHO the best editor out there. It isn' 100% unfortunately but its very close and very very nice. With that said, I haven't purchased it as i'm waiting on 1 feature to be added :p If he ever adds that one feature (making the code jumper work project wide instead of file wide) than i'll gladly jump over to it and give it a full 5 stars hehe. Seriously though it really is a rocking editor and I highly recommend you at least try the free trial.

John,

I tested it, and I while stepping, the editor loaded any necessary file ... thats what you mean?

I will buy it ...

In conText you can use Find to search through all files. Don't think it has the dot finish typing functionality. It's free always.

I've installed the Brain Editor demo and created a project, so all the .cs and .gui files now belongs to it. But I haven't gotten the dot completion functionality to work. Is there something that has to be done to make that work?

I dont know of any editors that have "dot completion" for torque script yet.

Pretty sure the Torque console does it, though. :)
