I probably never added that to the datamodel parser. I can have a go at it over the weekend.

It'd be very much appreciated if you could.

I love having access to properly merged flex controllers in Source Filmmaker, but it's really frustrating to have to try and debug them completely blind.

Just pushed a change to Git, give it a go[github.com].

That's a very welcome improvement. It's certainly giving error lines if I miss out a quote mark in a rawcontrolnames array, which significantly reduces the amount of time I'll have to mess around with that particular error.

However, trying to be thorough, it doesn't seem to give a line for all possible errors - the one I'm most fussed about is that it doesn't seem to be able to identify the line if a flex controller has the wrong number of wrinklescale variables compared to its raw controls. (Being honest, that's one of the things I regularly mess up).

I note that it also can't identify the line if I misspell many of the actual commands.
( eg. "accidentally" removing a letter from a rawcontrolnames command gives "Key Error: rawcontrolnames" and a reference to line 316 within the datamodel.py script, but not the line where it happened in the flex controllers.)

Still, I'm a lot less concerned about that latter error, as that's a lot less likely than missing out a quote mark when trying to rename controllers and reorganise flexes.

It will only report syntax errors during the initial parse. Data errors aren't covered and I'm not sure that it's worth me spending the considerable amount of time needed to report them properly.
