Constant Intellisense Auto-Completing in UnityVS

I’ve heard of people using UnityVS in Visual Studio. However, I can’t imagine why people enjoy this when there seems to be no way to disable the intellisense function. It’s really awful and requires me to input several extra keypresses of the left/right arrows to get out of the intellisense menus that come up whenever I type anything.

For instance, if I type “GUI” and then press the period or spacebar keys, the intellisense automatically inputs “guiText”. It does things like this for various terms. Sometimes I’d rather type out code than have to scroll down a giant list to auto-enter an item in that list, but this function makes this really difficult.

There is no option in the preferences to disable intellisense for UnityScript, and when I disable it for other scripts, it has no effect on a UnityVS file.

Do people really just live with this? In the end, I’d prefer MonoDevelop if there’s no fix for this.

First, let’s note that this issue applies only to UnityScript and not to C#.

Most of our customers are C# developers so obviously it accounts in how we prioritize our work.

That being said, we’re always working on improving our UnityScript support and your concerns have been duly noted, we’ll address them as soon as possible in our next versions :slight_smile:

Don’t hesitate to follow the UnityVS news and get in touch with us if you want to renew your trial when we ship updates to our UnityScript support!

Still waiting. I type “m_” and it autocompletes with whatever is at the top of the list. I always have to type and press escape to use this. The debugger also blows in that most variables are not recognized. For me, I would not recommend this to anyone using UnityScript until the day someone fixes these things. I use print statements to get variable values, that is how sad the debugger is.
