[CS:GO] Scripting Syntax Highlighting

[SparkyMcSparks]

Didn't see anything on MapCore, FPSBanana, or the official Steam forums / wiki on scripter friendly tools for Source modding (particularly with Squirrel) so I decided to make one.

 

Any feedback is welcome or if I'm missing anything; this will work with all Source games that use .NUT script files (Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, Titanfall, Left 4 Dead 2, etc...) but I'll be maintaining the function list with CS:GO stuff moving forward. I'll release some optional scripting macros too in a couple days.

Download Latest:

 

You can download the most latest version HERE from my website (direct link to ASCII file, Right Click > Save As).

 

Installation:

 

Place the squirrel.uew file in %USERPROFILE%AppDataRoamingIDMCompUltraEditwordfiles

Note: Will have to restart UltraEdit after initially putting it there.

 

Tips & Tricks:

 

- From the toolbar navigate to View > View / View Lists > Function List to enable listing all functions in your current open .NUT file.

 

- While scripting press Ctrl + Spacebar to open drop down list of all script commands from the Source engine's VScript VM for Squirrel.

Note: You can also do this to auto-complete what you're typing.

 

- You can collapse / expand snippets via braces on the vertical toolbar.

 

- You can use ReIndent Selection to clean up the formatting of your script.

There's quite a few Squirrel highlighters for various editors. Just no autocomplete for Valve's implementation.
