| Summary | 0001919: Is-event-true/false doesn't see new events until you exit the event editor and go back in | ||||
| Description | This is another one that's probably been around since retail. When you add events and then try to use is-event-true the section will either be grayed out (if no events existed) or the events you just added will not be in the list. | ||||

There's no easy way to solve this one. The problem is that the game doesn't update the list of events until the event editor is closed. We could make the event editor update the list of SEXPs, etc every time you make a new one but this would prevent you from using cancel to discard those changes (a much bigger bug). The only way to do this would be to back up the list of everything that can be changed by the events editor and restore it if cancel is pressed. Which is a very inefficient way of doing things but more importantly is method almost certain to develop lots of nasty little bugs. |

Why not copy the events to a temporary buffer while it is open and make the updates on that, then copy that to the main one when you hit OK or discard when you cancel? Then make reads from that one in the editor window instead of the main one. Not feasible? |
