README

To install, go to releases & download the .vsix file. Then install it like any other program. I highly recommend using this in conjunction with these instructions by ledhead900, but it's not technically a requirement.

Usage Examples

Variable Completion

<set_value name="$myVariable" />
<!-- Type $ to see all available variables -->
<!-- Hover over $myVariable to see usage statistics -->

Label Support (AI Scripts)

<label name="start" />
<!-- ... -->
<resume label="start" /> <!-- Completion available after typing " -->

Action Support (AI Scripts)

<library>
  <actions name="myAction">
    <!-- action content -->
  </actions>
</library>
<!-- ... -->
<include_interrupt_actions ref="myAction" /> <!-- Completion available -->

Language File References

<!-- Hover over any of these to see translated text -->
<set_value name="$text" exact="{1001,100}" />
<debug_text text="readtext.{1001}.{100}" />
<speak actor="$ship" page="1001" line="100" />

Known Limitations

• Variable scope: Currently limited to file scope (no namespace support)
• Cross-file references: Labels and actions are tracked per-file only
• Complex expressions: Advanced variable expressions in table lookups may not be fully parsed

Original Release Notes (thank you Cgetty)

1.0.0

Initial release. Supports scriptproperties.xml autocomplete

1.0.1

Major improvements; now has configuration & generates the entries at startup from scriptproperties.xml, removing the need for rerunning a python script when scriptproperties.xml updates.

1.0.2

Hopefully, no more duplicate suggestions. Also, Peek/Go to definition for script properties!
