Sublime Text completion and build tools for NWScript

animated demo

Features

  • NWScript
    • Syntax highlighting: A bit more accurate than the C syntax
    • Auto-completion: Functions, constants, #define and include scripts names
    • Documentation: Popups containing function documentation parsed from the script, with some additional notes for known badly behaving functions.
    • Snippets: while loops with GetFirst / GetNext functions, and other useful code snippets
    • Smart build tool: Quick multi-threaded compilation (only re-compile needed scripts)
  • 2DA syntax hilighting: Syntax highlighting and label column indexing (Ctrl+R)

Note: This package has been designed for NWN2, but it should work with NWN1 as well.

Installation

Compiler installation (required for using this package)

Chose either option 1 or 2

Option 1: Using the prepared zip (easy)

Option 2: Making your own compiler + scripts package

  1. Download the AdvancedScriptCompiler (http://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn2/other/tool/advanced-script-compiler-nwn2) and extract content of StandaloneCompiler in

    • Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\NWNScriptCompiler\
    • Linux: /opt/NWNScriptCompiler/
    • or any other path (see Custom paths below)
  2. Extract the NWN2 script data files (located by default in C:\Program Files (x86)\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2\Data\Scripts*.zip) in

    • Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\NWNScriptCompiler\Scripts\
    • Linux: /opt/NWNScriptCompiler/Scripts
    • or any other path (see Custom paths below)
  3. [Optional] You can delete ncs files from the Scripts directory, since only nss are required.

Custom paths: If you want to install the compiler somewhere else, you will need to modify the package settings (Preferences -> Package settings -> STNeverwinterScript -> Settings) to override the compiler_cmd and include_path variables.

Extra steps for Linux

You need wine in order to use the NWNScriptCompiler.exe

apt-get install wine # Ubuntu/Debian users
yum install wine # Fedora/Redhat users
pacman -S wine # Arch-Linux awesome users

You also need to edit STNeverwinterScript settings (Preferences -> Package settings -> STNeverwinterScript -> Settings) to override the compiler_cmd and include_path variables for Linux (examples provided).

Sublime package installation

Install with PackageControl

  1. From Sublime Text: press Ctrl+Shift+P, write PCInstall, press Enter
  2. Search for Neverwinter Script syntax and build, press Enter
  3. Follow the Compiler installation instruction above, if you haven't already
