I think I'm wrong saving in Visual C #

[verdito99]

NPCDialog.cs open (for example) and change something. So I save and close. (I saved by using Ctrl + S). I the New CO Server and reopen. And when I open the server, the NPC has changed nothing. What i need to do to save correctly?

saving does nothing... You need to debug it in order to re-build the .exe files.


The project file and the .cs files it loads are all your source code that controls the server. You cannot simply run those though (without using a compiler obviously, I just mean in general). You have to use a program to build them into a .exe file that you can click and run. To do that press f5 in your project and it will debug (and load) the server. you can then open the bin/debug folder to find the .exe and run it.

You made something so simple so confusing.

@OP: You aren't building your project. Go to Build > Build Solution OR hit "F6"... then run the server.

You hit F5 (or Debug > Start Debugging) when you want to debug it within Visual Studios to find errors.

Writing code does nothing.
You have to COMPILE that code into machine language, so you get the .exe you see.
So just saving the code does nothing. You would have to recompile the project.

To clarify this to rebuild the project hit F6 and that will rebuild the project

Make sure you open the project file, not a single .cs file, project files have the extension .sln

and .csproj

why not just say:
1. press F6
2. press F5
3. Eat a cookie

So your suggesting to:

1. Build the source (good suggestion if the user opens the project file)

2. F7 is the shortcut for View->Code, useless suggestion.

3. Eat a cookie...

Why not just not post?
