If we do this, it's likely desirable to store the script itself in the database. Especially with the plan for guides to come on-site, I wouldn't want to add a new button that results in taking people off-site. |

Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
It brought up in the code-reviewer channel that it might be nice to have a way to add a Github link for a script a set was made with so you can easily get to it if you are doing a revision or when the original dev disappeared and you do changes to the set. Currently the only way we can access these is by using our self-made Discord command which shows all repositories but from there you would also need to search it and you don't even know if one exists.
An actual feature would allow to easily see *what game has a script and where to find it.
It might be possible to simply copy the RAGuide code and do some changes since the effect is basically the same. The only difference would be that we have different script tools right now. From what I know there are RATools and CrunchCheevos, so the link field might need some dropdown to select what this script is made for.
Beside the recommended script tools I know there are also some devs who do some of their work with Google Sheets / Excel and make that generate code which they can then copy into the editor, but not sure if we want to encourage that by adding an option to select it.
Like usually I made some image how I would see the feature:

Simply move the tickets button further down and have Memory + Script button next to each other since both are coding related.
The button itself would show text based on what is selected as tool reference. So either showing "RA Script" which is the name of RATools' scripts or something like "CC Script", not sure what their official naming is since I am not using that tool.
With an actual field to link a script it would also make it easier to add a warning for future devs. Like when they make a revision claim that a warning would pop up saying:
This set was created using [Tool]. Please make sure the script gets updated.All reactions
