Hello,
Finally got some time to checkout the new libUSL stuff on the wiki. Decided
to give it a go. First thing I noticed is the continuous syntax checking.
Nice idea.
However, when I finished typing
show "This"
it froze. Screen went blank. No crash error messages. Just this in the
console:
Value(0x8476ca0)
show "This"
0:0: ExecutionBlock
1:12: ApplyNode
1:1: DefLookupNode(show)
It just stops there.
USL is also extremely verbose! I mean EXTREMELY verbose. Both while editing,
and when playing the game. The entire console buffer is filled with USL
debug info within a matter of seconds. Could we either ditch this, compact
it, or log it to a file please.
I guess it'll take time for the remaining game functions to become
available, but overall the language looks nice and fresh (if it means
anything to you, nice job). It's quite a different language (why := instead
of just = for example), and despite what information is on
http://www.globulation2.org/wiki/Map_editor_guide#USL , I'm still not clear
how to do things like multi line functions or access game elements and stats
(like game->totalUnits ?).
Any help with these issues is appreciated. Thanks.
Regards
Kieran
