Bug Fixes

Resolve qst-relative script include paths before ever reloading the qst 5b2c376746

The compiler resolves the implicit <qst dir>/scripts include path from the quest's recorded file location, which was only updated when loading a quest but not when saving one. So for a newly created quest (or after Save As to a new folder), compiling could not find scripts in the "scripts" folder next to the qst until the file was reloaded.

Bug introduced when implicit qst-relative include paths were added in 3.0.0-prerelease.163+2026-03-01 (eeb9d19c20).
Don't try next recent quest when cancelling a password prompt 877f744fd9 Discord

At startup with "Open Last Quest" enabled, cancelling the password prompt for a passworded recent quest made the editor move on to the next quest in the recent list, prompting for each passworded quest in turn.

Now only a missing quest file advances the search: any other failure falls through to the new-quest dialog.

Regressed in 3.0.0-prerelease.207+2026-08-04 (065e21f813).

Don't print the log prefix mid-line for partial prints 046e6d2a2f

Printing without a trailing newline (e.g. printf followed by more prints intended for the same line) inserted the trace prefix before every print, littering the line with stray ": " separators. The prefix is now only printed when starting a new line.

Regressed in 3.0.0-prerelease.161+2026-02-16 (9b2cfd68e4).
Avoid quadratic slowdown when freeing many script objects 2da95666c1

A script that created a very large number of objects (such as tens of thousands of temporary strings in a single frame) would stall for up to a minute when those objects were freed: each object deletion linearly scanned the by-type id list, and each newly-retained object linearly scanned the autorelease pool. Both operations are O(1) now.

Regressed in 3.0.0-prerelease.45+2024-04-02 (d4bc547f8e).
Don't print a bare ': ' before traces with no context prefix ce08e9facd

When neither the 'Print Script Metadata on Traces' quest rule nor dev logging was enabled, script trace output (Trace, printf) started every line with a dangling ': '. Now such lines print with no prefix at all, as they did before.

Regressed in 3.0.0-prerelease.161+2026-02-16 (9b2cfd68e4).
