Add Visual Studio 2022 Source Code Editor Support #161
Comments
It should support 2022 once the U8 and UE5 update comes through, so it's not worth fixing this in the mean time |
We might have to re-add the section of the docs talking about installing the extension now that it doesn't fail to install on VS 2022 like the old one did |

Hey Guys,
I just finished going through your "Getting Started" Guide and set up my SatisfactoryModLoader project to start modding. As stated in the guide, i installed Visual Studio 2022 and created the simple mod from the guide. Everything went pretty smooth until i tried to derive a c++ class for a new hologram.
The Unreal Editor was not able to detect any c++ compiler and suggested to install Visual Studio 2019. Thus i was not able to create the c++ class from the Unreal Editor.
With some research i found some similar problem with a hint to the solution:
https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine/comments/t5awb7/wanting_to_start_a_new_project_after_updating_to/
Looking through the UE4 Engine plugins, i found the Visual Studio Source Code Access plugin and the fix in UE 5 master repository:
https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/commit/b23fc15cac880cbb297b396571c01d2ff9c7a9f5
I applied the modifications to my local engine and recompiled the plugin and now i can select the Visual Studio 2022 as Source Code Editor in the Unreal Editor preferences and create c++ classes without any problems.
I recommend to add any hint about this problem on the Getting started guide or to use Visual Studio 2019 by default or to Update the SatisfactoryModLoader project with the changes to support Visual Studio 2022
