Beta-1.4 Update

New features

  • Autocomplete. Code completion suggestions will now appear as you type, press tab to use. Completions are generated from a lexical sweep of your code plus language keywords and external (ie robo_*) functions. The following shorthands for external functions have preference so will always come top in the suggestions and can be used like macros/snippets. Type the shorthand and press tab. Shorthands are generally the significant letters of a function:
    • rf -> robo_forward()
    • rl -> robo_left()
    • rs -> robo_scan()

    etc

    See new autocomplete keys in the game directory README.txt.

Other changes

  • Fix company message acknowledge not always working causing the message to reappear.
  • Clarify robo_use() additional runtime documentation.
