Quality of Life Suggestions

Text Editor

• Option to automatically prefix a dragged variable using Ctrl with _ .

• Implement an option in the Text Editor to disable the ‘close all documentation tabs’ option.

  • Disable the ‘Close all tabs’ option in the Text Editor and Editor.

• Disable the ‘Undo’ option so it works only in the Text Editor.

Common Issues

• Issue: "Class YYY hides a global script class: Caused by 'orphan' script in .tscn due to renamed files" .

• Issue: "Many script errors when loading project after merged pull request" .

FPS in the Editor

• Lock FPS in the editor .

  • "You can already enforce a custom FPS cap in both 3.x and 4.x by changing 'Low Processor Mode Sleep (Usec)' in the Editor Settings (higher values result in a lower FPS cap – try 33333 ). Note that this is not effective if 'Update Continuously' is enabled."

  • I set mine to 16666 to lock at 60fps, instead of the default 6900 which locks at 144fps.

  • This also locks the mouse FPS; it’s quite noticeable.

  • The information shown in the editor’s ‘View Frame Time’ is only an estimate of what the FPS would be under those conditions. It doesn’t show the actual FPS in the editor.
