tortuosit 485 Posted August 14, 2018 Hey guys, I always used pspad plus syntaxhighlighter for my SQF coding. Wasn't aware of that "Microsoft Visual Studio Code" open source project. And it is so awesome! The editor/IDE loads up fast, it has such a simple download of extensions (There are ArmA extensions! Syntax Highlighting easily downloadable). Highly configurable and has great keyboard shortcut support... All that stuff that programmers need like folding etc... I instantly love it and associated quite a few file types. I'm not a paid programmer, so this is exactly what I need. And those file system breadcrumbs... great. Anyone else using VS Code? https://code.visualstudio.com/ Tort Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tortuosit 485 Posted August 14, 2018 I see, I am not alone :) BTW - The Syntax highlighter by Vladislav Sazonov claims to support ArmA 3 1.82. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dedmen 2588 Posted August 14, 2018 I was using Atom before and switched over to VS Code. It's less resource intensive, faster and has nicer plugins. Take a look at SQFLint too while you're at it. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=skacekachna.sqflint Also SkaceKamen is working on a new thing together with me. Here is a small teaser: SQF Debugging incoming o7 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XianGrim 73 Posted August 14, 2018 Personally, my favorite thing about using VSCode and its extensions is the definitions. Forgot the exact syntax of a command? Hover your mouse over it and give you a link right to the BI Wiki page for it. Once I started using it, I don't think I could write scripts without it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SQFlint required for this. Why didn't I even know about the existence of VSCode...? Haha, this way I found out that we now can have seeded randomness :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once SkaceKamen got through his finals and has time again to continue working on the project ^^ I'm taking care of the Arma Debugger side and he's making the VSCode Integration. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
