If-then-else expressions inside of interpolated strings makes script editor expect additional 'end'

[7z99 (cody)]

Interpolated strings with if-then-else expressions make the script editor think an additional ‘end’ is necessary.

I expect the script editor to know an additional end is not expected and not add an additional end.

Where it happens: Studio only, any game.

When it happens: First noticed it January 10 2023 at ~3:42 PM AST

Repro instructions:
1- Paste the following in the script editor:

local a = `{ if true then 'a' else 'b' }`

2- Press enter.

Thanks for flagging!

@Focia19,

I’m not sure if I should make a separate bug report as unsure whether or not they’re related, but it also seems to happen with nested if-then-else expressions as well, so:

local a = if true then if true then 'a' else 'b' else 'c'

will give you the same behaviour of the script editor expecting the redundant end

This seems to have been fixed after the first Studio update following the release of interpolated strings
