Type
S as String

and then press Enter.

Just as soon as you press Enter, String changes to StringToBase64. In the autocomplete, String doesn't show up. A bit annoying as I need to press Space, then Backspace before pressing enter each time I end a line with String.

Yes it is annoying, here is how to solve it (Paul should also make this small change to the editor for future versions):

1. Open "Tier 1\Editor\Data\tags\main.agc.tags" in a text editor such as Notepad.
2. Insert the following line into the top of the file on its own line:



3. Save the file.
4. Reopen the AppGameKit editor.

Now you can enter "As String" and it will both autocomplete to "String" and allow you to still autocomplate to the Base64 version as needed but it won't auto-switch it.

Thanks xCept, that worked.. Note that you might need to open the text editor in administrative mode.

Thanks xCept, this has been annoying me for a long time!

The next one to fix is the issue where variables in a Type disappear from the list after a couple of characters are typed, if there are similar AppGameKit commands that can be listed.
