Share this post:
  • Added support for the new func(a,,b) (acting as func(a,undefined,b))
  • Added support for non-folder sub-layers
  • Added support for effect layers
  • Server now prints small notes along with HTTP status codes

Now that I’m writing this changelog, I realize that this should include ?? and ?= operators as well, but perhaps that’s for next week.

If you are using an older runtime (which doesn’t have those constants yet), you can do

#macro seqtextkey_bottom undefined

(repeat for each constant that shows this error in live_preinit_init_consts)

After so many issues with 2.3.0 it’s nice to see that since GM switched to monthly releases none of them seems to broke GMLive functionality :)

In fact, nullish operator is little broken:

// nullable operator test + ds_map accessor 
show_debug_message(list[| 1] ?? "not found"); // crashes
show_debug_message(map[? "test"] ?? "not found"); // crashes

I’ve reported it during 2.3.7 beta ASAP after this feature was added, but seems that they don’t want to fix it yet…

I’ve seen this - only serves as proof that people write parsers and AST builders vastly differently.

with new intellisense and references finding they probably makes a big rewrite for syntax checking, so new bunch of bugs is incoming! :D

2.3.0 was a pretty hard update given how much of the runtime code changed - these days it’s only occasional bugs with HTML5.

This is the best add-in for GMS2 available. I've even created a template project that has this add-in loaded by default.
