Backtick code formatting helper

[phoenixdk]

I’d like to suggest a button for creating the set of backticks for a code block, or if it’s already there, make it more prominent.

I’ve noticed that newcomers have trouble using code blocks, even though the help post template comes with one - this might alleviate that. There is a button for blockquote, so why not code block?

It exists, but on mobile it’s genuinely so hidden it’s kind of a joke.

This is a very good example of why the UI needs to change:

Follow player 3d *****no ai****

Hello. So im making an horror game but i made a enemy that should follow the player if its on the area3d. Im not going to give the code i tried bc its buns but i did: all triggered by is_chasing = true Follow a tutorial, after i tried %Enemy.position = %Player.position * SPEED2 ( worked but a lil bad) and also i did that with the rotation (didnt work well….) Can someone help me?? :, ) AND PLEASE NO AI I DONT WANT THAT ( also its minus baggy if its not ai : ) ) Old script: extends Chara…

I used this new guy’s post as reference twice today. But it’s SO relevant! That guy got super unlucky.

It’s equally hidden on desktop, and “preformatted text” isn’t the menu item I’d be looking for - maybe putting it among the default buttons (I think it trumps blockquote in importance) and calling it “code” instead?

I’d love to see it add “gd” to the top so the code is formatted prettily.

```gd
# This looks much better
```
