Render inactive scripts with a different color in a prim inventory
tracked
Oggy Fink
I just lost a lot of time trying to find and fix a non-existent bug, adding debug functions and such in my script, until I finally noticed the "running" checkbox was unchecked (because of a previous compilation failure and save, probably).
It would probably have saved me a lot of time if inactive scripts could be identified at a glance in the prim's inventory. My suggestion is to color them in yellow, orange, red or whatever!

I suggest expanding this from just helping with llSetScriptState, to also visually denote for a period scripts making use of llResetScript, and llScriptProfiler as a possible LSL DX qol thing.

Issue tracked. We have no estimate when it may be implemented. Please see future updates here.

This very much sounds like the sort of thing I would contrib. Annoying LL viewer doesn't support Linux and I can't really do anything with it. :V

I feel this. I feel this so much.
Can we have this, pretty, pretty please?

I think this might need to be recategorized as a viewer suggestion since there's nothing inherent to LSL here, it's just rendering the UI differently if the running flag isn't set.
Also re: colors: it might be more accessible to use a different icon or something instead of modifying the text color to a color that may or may not be legible on whatever thene is being used, by someone who might be visually impaired.
But I agree, it's kind of silly that it's just not possible to see if a script is running without opening it. (On the flip side, might make it harder to implement as a result...?)

Nelson Jenkins Yes you are right, this is more a viewer suggestion.
I understand your point about the visually impaired, still I'd like a different color. Or maybe both the icon and the color, or a setting about it.
