Script Labeling?

I think we should be able to label our scripts when making them, and then have a search bar on the side so that we can easily locate the scripts when making projects requiring big scripts. The script feature is often too cluttered and sometimes "clean up scripts" doesn't cut it.

It should be as easy as finding files in Finder or Windows. Type something in, and a script with that label will isolate itself.

Also, for sprites with the same labels, when dragging scripts onto sprites, there should be an option to change the name or overwrite the script.


Hey there..

Or maybe the ability to search comments.

Re: Script Labeling?

Yes that would help a lot. Especially for large scripts.

Re: Script Labeling?

Sort of like this? I haven't heard anything about implementation though.

I want that!

That's what I was thinking about.

Re: Script Labeling?

A lot like this. I wasn't thinking about sharing your stuff with other people. My search feature idea would only work within the project, but this is good.
