ck3-tiger for VS Code

Are you tired of constantly dealing with the tedious process of open error.log -> copy path to an error -> navigate to the path -> fix the error -> go back to the error log -> repeat?

This extension integrates the ck3tiger functionality to Visual Studio Code, enabling you to view errors directly in the Problems tab.

Problem tab

Errors in the editor

Usage

After activation, the extension will ask you few questions:

1. path to your ck3tiger binary
2. path to ck3 "game" folder
3. path to the descriptor.mod file

Then you can run ck3tiger from the status bar:

How to get rid of a problem I just fixed?

Because the ck3tiger is not a language server, to get rid of the problem, you'll need to run ck3tiger again

Get problems without running ck3tiger

If you have not much RAM, you can run ck3tiger in its folder, and write the output to "tiger.json" file, and then run vscode and run command "Get problems from the log file"
