Script recovery is a really bad experience

I want to be able to compare script version within studio. Right now script recovery takes the form of:

  • Open a version of a script in a text editor
  • Open another version of the script in studio
  • Copy both versions into some third party diffing tool
  • Compare the two versions
  • Go back and forth between three windows while salvaging and editing different parts of the code

This is a terrible experience every time. Studio should not be launching an external editor and it should be able to diff the files within its own editor.

A short term fix for you would be something like this. Its totally a pain though

I’m constantly harassed by script recovery for no apparent reason, even when the scripts are the same, and it’s led to the loss of multiple bits of code.
