Quality of Life improvements in Studio Scripting

It starts at 1,000,000 lines or 5,000 characters on a line. These are based on the data we got for script editor’s performance. You can adjust these values in settings: Large File Line Count Threshold and Large File Character Threshold.

I can definitely see myself using most of these. Nice changes!

Awesome as someone who is trying to work at learning coding this will be a big help, if this expands to other parts of code then :grinning: :+1:t2:.

Hi @2jammers,

Were you able to file a bug about this? Would you mind describing what is happening here?

Godbless documentation lookup and symbol renaming, these two points slow me down the most when iterating. Love the UX improvements happening here.

are there any plans for making your own documentation (something like LuaDoc)? since more is coming on the way

The instant documentation feature is really good, and it’s going to help out so many people. Thank you so much!!

I have not been coding for that long since I started the 1st of this month, but I already ran into this struggle a few times. Glad to see that ROBLOX is actively hunting for ways to improve! Features enjoyed by beginners and experienced alike.

Yes! I needed this so many times because I had to change a whole variable then rename the old ones in my LONG script…

Cool update!

No one is aware of the suffering I’ve gone through when renaming and changing names.

My life will indeed be rendered so much simpler by this.

I honestly appreciate Roblox.

I’d find this extremely ugly. A couple extra pixels of padding probably wouldn’t hurt though.

This is neat. Are there any plans to add more of these QoL features?

I’d really like the ability to add documentation to custom functions that then shows up like the built-in documentation.

Absolute W changes here especially the document symbol renaming

How do you get that? It does not work for me

Resume is not resuming my gameplay tests while I have this circled setting ticked and I get an error. Is this a bug?

I don’t remember activating this feature, so I was surprised when I was unable to resume out of errors recently (it was randomly ticked on.)
