Schema database

The schema database lists every class the game knows, with its attributes: their names, types, the values they accept and, where someone has written it, what they do. It's what completion, hover and the attribute checks read.

It's a separate community project, scs-schema, so it can be improved without a new version of the extension.

What's in it

• Every class of the game: 1,327 in ATS 1.61, with the attribute names and types the game itself reads. This part is complete, which is why an unknown attribute is almost always a typo.
• Descriptions: written by hand, and most classes don't have them yet. Hover then shows the attribute's type only.

How it's downloaded

• The list of classes is downloaded when VS Code starts, and each class the first time you use it.
• Everything is saved on your computer. After the first download, it works offline.
• Each time VS Code starts, the extension checks for a newer version in the background. To check right now, run Refresh Schema Database.

If you're offline the very first time, completion, hover and the attribute checks have nothing to work with yet. Everything else works: the structure and name checks don't need the database.

Something's missing or wrong?

If a class or an attribute is missing, a description is wrong, or you'd like to write one, open an issue or a pull request on the scs-schema repository.
