Setting Up an External Editor
HALion includes a basic text editor for scripts. If you want to use advanced features and code highlighting, you can set up and use an external editor.
Procedure
- In the Options Editor, in the Scripting section, click Browse for External Editor, and select the application that you want to use.
Result
If you now open a script by clicking Edit Script in the editor for the Lua Script module, it is opened in the external editor.
Note
A Lua script must be saved to disk before it can be opened in an external editor.
