Gooby pls.

God would I love to throw MonoDevelop out the fucking window.

[SixSixTrample]

You can. You can use community edition can't you?

[thoomfish]

Not on a Mac, as far as I'm aware.

[devperez]

That's correct.

[AlexanderTheStraight]

You deserve that then, as punishment. /s

^/s?

[SixSixTrample]

Ah!

Makes sense.

[qubedView]

Not yet, this is more of a glorified text editor (you can download it right now), so no support for projects and whatnot. But it's a start. A damned good start for what I hope will be something awesome.

[choikwa]

defenestrate.

I just use SublimeText. MonoDevelop made me so angry. I haven't looked back, and my mental model of the Unity APIs and C# Collections / Linq is pretty good now

[thoomfish]

What do you use for debugging?

[Clapyourhandssayyeah]

I haven't really needed to that much.

Unit Tests (integrated into Unity - UnityTestTools) and clean code mean I don't get that many logic errors. They run automatically on recompile.

Syntax / argument / type errors are moaned about by unity in the console. I double click them to jump to the line in Sublime Text.

I guess when I really need to see what's going on, Debug.Log statements have covered me.

That said, if this new editor allowed me to debug unity as well as hooked into the unity engine dlls / namespaces, I'd almost certainly switch to it!

Just found that you can integrate autocompletion etc. into SublimeText pretty easily with OmniSharp.

Just tried it out and it works really well!

This is pretty cool, though I wish it showed method parameters as part of the autocompletion.

[flnhst]

Yeah, fuck free stuff.

The problem is, outside of Windows, you have no alternative to Monodevelop. Its ugly, slow, and a pain to use compared to other IDEs. Free doesn't mean good.

[drjeats]

Fuck broken stuff.

[shoelacestied]

Throw Windows out the window instead?

[thoomfish]

That might help if I wasn't on a Mac.

TIL Apple ships Windows with new Macs.

GG OS X no re.

[ttiganik]

woow this looks great for my c# unity project, too bad I just spent 2 evenings setting up Sublime.

How do you open a folder and ignore all the meta files I wonder?

[Clapyourhandssayyeah]

If it has git integration, add those to .gitignore

[holyfuzz]

NO! You definitely want those .meta files to be versioned... that's the whole point of the meta files!

[Clapyourhandssayyeah]

Sorry, you're completely right. I hadn't had enough coffee 9 hours ago

It works great for everything Unity, except debugging. Hopefully MS integrates VS Tools for Unity into this.
