Keeping a condition even after game exit

    I'm not trying to avoid Lua as i like to use it, pretty much for the same reasons. I just got the idea & now i understand why there's no function like that in the engine.

    I guess you mean you use Lua for "special" things as i don't see much a point in using it for simple stuff like character speaking or adding item unless it's not part of a bigger function.

    ..it will be more fun with the colors and new stuff for Lua in the new Vis, it will get even more clear then.

    Ah yeah there's no color syntax for the execute a script blocks is there? Wasn't really paying attention to them. I know there is in the script section of the editor, but as you know I write most of my scripts in sublime & copy/paste them into the editor when I'm done.

    I can tell you that David has been working on improving the script side of the engine / editor, so yeah, there should be some new features & improvements regarding that. I don't know if they will extend into the execute a script action blocks though.

    Unfortunately it doesn't look like auto-complete is going to be added just yet, so I will probably continue to use Sublime for the most part & reserve writing scripts inside of the editor to small-ish ones I can get by without the features I use in Sublime. I was talking with Simon about auto-complete a couple weeks or so back as I'd like to see it extend to actions, functions & so on, just like Game Maker Studio, where it shows a list of actions / events / functions based on what you are currently typing.
