Value

Just asking for a clarification of the word "Value".

FileMoveData doc refers to FileDemo, where TileId.Value is used.

Yet Value doesn't show up with code completion, and I can't find any description of it anywhere. It works as displayed, but this question will come up again without some doc somewhere.

"DefineVariable" component has a property called "Value". But since you don't want to use "X.Value" etc the expression editor allow you to type just "X".

When property is a reference to another property, such as AnimatorSimple.Target, you need to type the full "componentname.propertyname" syntax to specify the property.

The "Value" and "IntValue" properties are documented here: http://www.zgameeditor.org/index.php/Co ... neVariable

So how does -

Writing Expressions
.Global properties
..Value
..IntValue

seem to you?

You mean as an alternative structure for the documentation for writing expressions? I'm not sure how important it is to learn about more Value/IntValue, I'd rather see it as a technical detail. However, they should appear in code-completion, so I will change the code so that all the properties are visible.
