Hello would it be possible to get Simba use a Very detailed Debug. What i mean is this:


Example Script:

[PHP]Function MakeCompassPoint(x, y: integer): boolean;
var
a: extended;
begin
a := rs_GetCompassAngleDegrees;
if (a < 0) or (not LoggedIn) then
exit;
a := a + 90 + Degrees(ArcTan2(y - MMCY, x - MMCX));
Result := MakeCompass(a);
end;[/PHP]


And then when it calls a Function or procedure it would writeln everything, like

If it Calls this:[PHP] "a := rs_GetCompassAngleDegrees;"[/PHP]
Then it would writeln this: [PHP] "a := rs_GetCompassAngleDegrees;"[/PHP] .
When it would call this:[PHP] "a := a + 90 + Degrees(ArcTan2(y - MMCY, x - MMCX));"[/PHP]
It would Writeln this [PHP]"a := a + 90 + Degrees(ArcTan2(y - MMCY, x - MMCX));"[/PHP]

So the point is that it would Writeln exact line where script is going on :)

Debugging will be available in Simba soon. For now, use SCAR's.

Erm, what Diddy Kong? Scar offers no more debugging support (except for stepping I think) than Simba.

Anyway, Home, if you're compiling it yourself, I'm sure there would be some way to do it by altering the PS interpreter a bit so that before executing a line it would writeln it, though unsure

Pretty much what Home is talking about is debug stepping, but why would you want Simba to print out the entire line for when when a value is assigned to a variable?

Yes that would be possible.. However it would slow a script down a lot.. Optional might be a good thing, yeah.

I think that just having a call stack would be better.

Would require a modified version of the pascalscript I guess :(

Wow, dw, I posted in the wrong thread.

Also, hot loli are winner!

That would be a sweet extension.

I like this also. I often put in Writeln's to see what lines get executed. This would save the trouble. :p
