Summary0000119: Entity descriptions missing
DescriptionSource: http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?s=&showtopic=5384&view=findpost&p=100374

The blue group in the Add Property dialog doesn't contain property descriptions. This is in the build up on FTP as of 2/12/07. An image demonstrating the issue exists in the above link.

Edit: The hope would of course be that these would include _all_ available properties, like DoomEd. I'm not sure where they're defined (they don't seem to be in the DEF files), but if only custom ones showed up, it wouldn't be terribly helpful. The AI for instance have more than 50 properties in all.

Currently it only looks for the properties defined in the entityDef itself, using "editor_var blah" and "editor_bool blah". It does not currently process properties inherited from parent entityDefs, which may be the issue here.

The inheritance does seem to be the issue -- the example entityDef's given do not define their own custom variables, but they may inherit from a superclass which does. Ideally these inherited custom variables should be listed too.

Is there a possibility I don't have this code from greebo's new texturetool build? I still get nothing:

Edit: make that for *some* things, I get nothing. atdm:mover_door does show me extended properties...

There are two bugs here:

1. Problem with DefTokeniser not terminating comments that end in "**/" resulting in certain parent classes not being loaded -- RESOLVED.
2. The inheritance resolution is a single pass and non-recursive, so not all properties are propagated -- OUTSTANDING

Entity class inheritance should now be fixed in SVN. I checked a number of classes and they all display with custom properties (including AI).

I saw differences on checking out the builder guard, so I dug a bit deeper. Let's use the builder forger instead, for example. Some differences noted:

1.
In DR, the following three fields are default:
classname, name, origin
In DoomEd, we are shown:
classname, name, origin, anim

Why the anim field isn't shown, I don't know. Importance in terms of general editing, unknown.

2.
In DoomEd, some selected items that show up in the properties list for the forger (I really wish I could just dump the list from the editors):

eye_turn_min, eye_turn_max, eye_vertical_offset
def_attach
head
FOV
no_idle_chatter
alert_threshN

This is just a brief sampling, I definitely did not go through the hundred or so in the list. None of these show up for the forger in DR as either inherited properties, nor in the Add Property dialog. The blue atdm:ai_builder_forger folder is also empty for this character, but that is almost certainly not where the missing props would show up; they don't exist there for a builder guard either (aside from alert_threshN - why that is there and the others aren't, I do not know). Bits and pieces here and there seem to be getting picked up, but I guess until it hits all the sources DoomEd hits (and the question arises, does DoomEd even cover them all?) the lists will never agree.

The issue has been fixed after I uploaded a new build, so you're probably working with the unfixed version. Uploading now...

With newest SVN downloaded about 10 mins ago (1:30 EST) I still get the same fields not showing, empty "blue" folder, etc... :(

Confirmed that ai_builder_forger does not display the inherited properties, even though it supposedly inherits from ai_humanoid which IS populated with custom properties.

Whoops, boolean flag was not initialised to false in constructor resulting in inheritance failure for some entities.

Definitely looks much more populated.
Will track individual problems as/if found.
