Is there somewhere an up-to-date list of known bugs?

[Danny]

Not really. Currently I am aware of:

• Binding toggle doesn't stick
• can't bind alt keys
• checking the Let Me Type checkbox in Key Action lets you type but it always outputs 'a'

There are a bunch of features not implemented, but those are the only bugs I know of.

I think the mouse buttons don't match between the dialog and what it says in the main window.

[Danny]

Do you mean the casing is differnent?

Edit: Oh I see the issue now. It's fine creating it from scratch, but not loading a predefined mouse button action. Fixed

[TiagoTiago]

Not exactly, it seems it swaps the middle and right buttons, the left button always show as left though

Heyo Sixense! Back from a little hiatus after my computer had a few bad reformats and I lost all of the MCEs I had been working on. I'm sure you guys can understand how frustrating that is :/

Thanks for the new release of the Editor, I'm loving the drag and drop functionality. It's making my life so much easier!

I have two bugs to report. The "Save" button isn't working correctly, and as far as I can tell it isn't doing anything. In order for me to save my work I have to use "Save As" and overwrite the file I was working in. Secondly, my grids that aren't square are getting messed up with their collums and row values getting flip around. I have a 4x3 inventory grid in CoH that is turning into a 3x4 grid after I save my work. I have to manually go in and change it back. That one is extremely annoying!

Anyway, thanks for the help Danny

EDIT: So hey, grid support in the next update?

[Danny]

Thanks Ajores,

The save button will save the currently loaded mce. I think I force you to pick the save location initially when loading from the editor. The save operation does work, in fact it will call the SaveAs operation if you haven't saved the file yet.

I will at least get the grid bug fixed for the next release, but yes grids and key_press actions are next on my plate. Please be on the lookout for any bugs that might show up when using the drag operations. Make sure all of your data is set correctly after the opertation. I did test this but I may have missed something. Can you post your mce so I can test the grid fix?

You could put your mce's on Dropbox or something similar to keep them as a backup if you don't have a backup drive.

[Ajores]

Nay, thank you Danny for all your hard work ;D

I shared the MCE in the user made thread, as per your request. And I actually have a back up drive, I just plum forgot to back them up in the first place. Such a bone head move -_-. And how bizarre, I guess the save button is working. Maybe I'm just too paranoid from the old editor to trust it enough? lol. I just tested it to confirm that it is indeed working (which I thought I already did) and you would be correct. I'll keep my eye's open for anything unusual regarding the drag and drop feature (have I mentioned how handy that is? lol).

In the process of checking that the save feature does, indeed, work, I duplicated the grid bug I was mentioning.

<action_grid>
  <num_cols>2</num_cols>
  <num_rows>3</num_rows>

This is my 3x2 HQ Building grid (F1 - F6) keys, which has it's cols and rows reversed from what they are supposed to be after I did a test save of my MCE (all I did was add a description "This is a test" and saved). I wonder... maybe if I save it again it will be flipped back to normal?

...and believe it or not if I save it again they are flipped again (back to normal). Further saving again and again flips them again and again, and so on. Bizarre yes? lol.

[Danny]

Cool thanks for reporting the grid bug, I've got it fixed locally.
