Title: Directive-is-variable
Post by: karajorma on December 21, 2011, 05:39:38 am

Just a quick question. I want to know if any FREDders are using this SEXP at the moment. I'm thinking of either deprecating or completely replacing it with a more powerful one and it makes more sense to just remove it and replace rather than having to support the old version.

The changes will involve a search and replace for directive-is-variable so if only a couple of people are using the current version and nothing has been released using it, I might as well just get rid of it.

I use it in nearly all of Luyten Civil War's missions, plus a couple other missions for FotG and Scroll.

If you modify the SEXP, but document the changes, I won't complain.

My tutorial... noooooo...

I use it too, in fact JAD2.21 uses it, so any large changes will break the campaign.

If it's in a released campaign I won't remove it. But I'll fix it in a way that if you open and resave any mission it will change it to the new version of the SEXP.
