Good Papyrus Editor

[Smithsonian1974]

Hi there modders

 

 

Does anyone know a good Papyrus editor with CodeCompletion and Function reference. I tried Intellisky and Ckpe. Both are great but development Stopped.

I'm using PapyrusED which has good and bad:

 

Good:

• integrated code compilation with line-number references for errors
• autocomplete
• multiple file edits
• ability to complile current, compile open, compile all scripts... seems to understand dependencies and compile in correct order
• Able to learn from available scripts. I didn't have to do any special configuration for SKSE or SkyUI other than putting the scripts in the right directory.

Bad:

• beta code, so buggy
• some issues with loading files, creating new files... all tolerable but somewhat inconvenient
• autocomple is too aggressive sometimes. Doesn't include function call syntax (i.e., parameter prompting)

Wish the author would respond to my requests or make sourcecode available. Still, I like this best of those I've tried.

 

I sometimes switch to Notepad++ as an alternative. There is good how-to @ CK site on setting that up. Papyrus Syntax Checker is also useful for generating XML that Notepad++ can use to recognize extension libraries like SKSE and SkyUI.

 

Hope that helps.
