[FEAT. REQ.] Create/Edit tab - Script icon doesn't allow to open Lib lua files in external editor

#1 Post by SimPassion »

Just discovered this bug today on AM 4.1.6,
we are indeed allowed to open the main logic.lua using the "Script" icon feature, however we are not able to open any of the other available lua files from the "lib" folder, into our own external editor

[EDIT] we can indeed perform a right-click on each tab then select "Open in editor", however the simpler and easiest way is to left click on Script icon which should definitely allow the script opening

Right click on the tab (lib) and select open.

This is what I already stated in the EDIT before your posting Ralph and which is not the target
I still consider this as a bug to be fixed or a feature to be added, as you would see it

That's not a bug, this has never been a feature. The logic button always only opened the logic.lua

It can be a feature request, but it ain't a bug.
