Editor is unable to parse extended scripts

[LeXXik]

Consider the following 2 scripts:

/* jshint esversion: 6 */
class MyBaseScript extends pc.ScriptType {...}
pc.registerScript(MyBaseScript , 'myBaseScript ');

/* jshint esversion: 6 */
class MyDerivedScript extends MyBaseScript {...}
pc.registerScript(MyDerivedScript, 'myDerivedScript');

MyDerivedScript script works fine if the application is launched, but the Editor fails to parse it, when the Parse button is clicked. It complains that "MyBaseScript" is undefined.

This has now been addressed in the work for ESM Scripts playcanvas/engine#5963.

The recommended approach for this is as follows

export class MyBaseScript extends pc.ScriptType {}

import { MyDerivedClass } from './MyDerivedClass.mjs';
export class MyDerivedScript extends MyBaseScript {}

@marklundin is ./MyDerivedClass.mjs relative to the script that imports it, or is it the assets root?

[marklundin]

It's relative to the importing file, although these relative paths depend on a separate editor update which should be happening today next week.
