Maybe it is a bug.

A bug or a change in the command that I haven't read about yet.

 

I have an object that uses profiles and works fine in 26.

But in 27 the list of profiles is blank (I haven't been using 27 yet so haven't noticed).

The object still works and the one available (default) profile is fine.

If I use a different profile in 26 and then copy & paste that to 27, it will show only that new profile.

 

And another odd thing is, if I open the script and look at the parameter list in 27, it appears to be working just fine.

Hi,

 

This is a bug, I will report it.

The problem is with the UI. If you add a graphical UI using ui_infield for the profile parameter, it will work.

 Man, I can't even work in the Interface script.  The new GDL editor is completely clunky. I can's scroll down with my mouse.  Script takes an eon to load.  Give me the old interface back please!  Line numbers are great, but not if I can't move about the script.  Hopefully just a weird session.  Will reboot and hope this works better.  I have one part that works fine, and another that doesn't.  Neither have an interface script.  Difference is that one is an object, and one is a door.  

Many Thanks, JP

Happy to report it was computer issue in regards to editing the script.  It was the first GDL i had accessed in 27 so I was nervous the new interface was clunky.  After restarting everything, all is working smoothly.  Adding a basic UI to see if that fixes the bug..

 

Many Thanks, JP
