Made a VSCode extension to light up syntax in .hmi files. Time to make some snippets

Progress update

Finally RP-drive

What language is that? Did you develop your own?

[dry flume]

Basically it’s limited Java. You can’t declare a class or a function, only primitive types and a few like List and String. System, Thread and other dangerous classes were completely removed from this environment

Soon

Interesting. Do you include a Java compiler, or is it interpreted?

Are classes whitelisted or blacklisted?

[dry flume]

I made my own interpreter in the beginning, but it sucks, it sometimes dropped frames so hard that I had to move to a beanshell interpreter

[wintry stream]

Have you considered using a simpler language, then - something that might be easier and quicker to parse?

Alternatively, have you considered compiling it to a data structure, so you don’t have to read from a file?

[dry flume]

I did, but it’s very limited, I don’t like that, plus it involves using loops which is bad for your frame time, also I don’t compile it from a file each time, the code just gets stored in a string one time then it gets interpreted

[wintry stream]

Note for me to look into later: JEXL.

Could be useful.

[dry flume]

Almost the same as beanshell

[wintry stream]

More efficient, though, I’m pretty sure.

You seem familiar with the HeldItemRenderer because I have an issue, you have time to help me out?

Feel free to dm me)

why not use JS? Iris is planning on using JS for shader packs
