Sandbox Update: Features: Scripting Updates and Instance Inspectors

[benloh]

In GitLab by @benloh on Feb 17, 2021, 11:24

We've added a few features that should improve the experience of working with scripts.

1. Scripting Updates: !47 and !48
2. Instance Inspectors: !49

The highlights:

• Script keywords are now more consistent.

• Agents can now be referenced in WHEN statements.

• You can now define instances that are automatically created when you submit a script.

• All instances have inspectors that show their current properties

• Deprecated keywords:

  • featureProp
  • featureCall has become featCall
  • featureHook
  • addTest, ifTest, ifProg
  • setProp is now deprecated. Use prop agent.<property> setTo <value> instead.
  • propCallis now deprecated. Use prop agent.<property> <method> <value> instead.

• Stable keywords:

  addProp, useFeature
  prop, featProp, featCall
  propPush, propPop
  featPropPush, featPropPop
  when
  onEvent

• Debugging and Testing Keywords (these might still change)

  randomPos  - uses Math.random() which is bad for simulation
  ifExpr     - runs code if an expression returns TRUTHY
  exec       - runs an SMC program
  dbgOut     - dumps parameters to console up to 100 times (very slow)
  dbgStack   - dumps the current state.stack
  dbgContext - dumps the current state.context
  dbgError   - used internally by compiler
  keywordErr - used internally by compiler

• Note that only aquatic.js scripts have been updated to the new keyword spec. The other models still need to be updated.

Please see the merge requests for full details.
