Recommendations for external editor for RMMV code??

GodOfKnockers · 2018-11-06T07:27:18+0900

I know that RMMV has the option to export the contents of the code editor to a file, but is there an external editor that I can use to work on it? I'm gonna be pretty active for the holidays, and I can't lug my PC everywhere. I'll mainly be on my tablet, so an editor that I can open and modify the code for my RPG would be welcome. So can anyone recommend anything or am I overshooting?

Any text editor will do. The popular one these days is VSCode, although I still prefer Sublime Text.

But I'm confused, as MV does not have a code editor like the older RMs used to. Using an external text editor is the only way to modify the MV code.

Depends on what code you're talking about.

The answer above is for plugin code which is in JavaScript.
Event code has no such editor, the export is just for comparing and posting etc.

The IDE doesn't matter. Just pick one you like. I like Sublime Text, so that's the one I'm using.
