I have some free time....

#1 Post by paboperfecto »

Would you guys like some help on bug fixes? I have some free time for the next couple of weeks and would love to help out. I probably wouldn't be great for any of the graphical issues but can probably help out elsewhere.

Sure help is always welcome :)

Can you code in lua ?

If so you could maybe implement some simple sidequests to start ?

The only experience I have with Lua is playing with TOME code. :)

A few quick questions....Is there a way to turn breakpoints on in the debug console? Can I set a watch on a variable so that I'm alerted when it changes? Thanks.

The RemDebug module is already packaged with T-Engine, but the debugger is not initialized by default. If you want to debug a specific portion of code then you can put these command just above that section:

Code: Select all

require "remdebug.engine"
remdebug.engine.start()
Before starting ToME you should download and run the RemDebug controller, and then once T-Engine hits the code above you will have access to T-Engine through the RemDebug controller terminal. I personally have never used the watch expressions in RemDebug, but have used the stepping and introspection features quite a bit. It isn't a beautiful GUI, and you may want to look at SciTE and SciTE-debug if you want a GUI.
<DarkGod> lets say it's intended

Yeah, I wasn't looking for a nice GUI, just something like GDB where I could give it a file and line number and have it stop there.
