Yeah SIDL (the language titanium ui uses) can actually crash the game in some cases, so like you never know, may check out at first then a week later someone adjusts the quantity of rat ears they want to sell and *Poof* They're looking at their desktop haha

Don't want to slip that into green launch week on accident [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] But maybe this one we can get through the testing machine, it seems harmless to me, we will try!
Ugh. I imagine there is already tooling for this (eg. https://www.eqinterface.com/index.php?section=sidlwidl), but if you could use an XML Schema (ie. a way to verify that the UI code doesn't break any of its own rules) let me know. I used to make such things years ago, and I could always grab the book that's currently propping up my monitor to remind myself how [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Unfortunately though I imagine it's probably something where you are following the rules, and Verant's code just explodes anyway ... but again if there's anything I can do to help on that level let me know.

P.S. I also used to do XSLT. I doubt this would be useful, but if you ever need to produce like multiple versions of the UI files for some reason, I can probably write a "transformer" that would take a base version and turn it into the "green version" or the "blue version" or whatever.
