Script Debugger: Table keys displayed out of order

[darthlukan]

I'm in the process of debugging a loop which is supposed to vertically scroll some text contained in a table. My loop is verified as looping over the keys in order (ipairs(array) vs pairs(array)) but in the debugger (pictured) the keys appear out of order once we get to "k=10", where it appears after the first index.

 

It's a small thing, but it confused me for a minute before I double-checked the loop again and verified that it is in fact iterating in the correct order. This is literally just a display issue in the debugger.

 

Here's the screenshot of what I'm talking about (nevermind my improperly incremented values):

 

Expected behavior: Keys in "txt_y" table are displayed in order

Current behavior: Keys in "txt_y" table are displayed out of order once there are more than 9 keys.

Yeah, they are sorted in alphabetical order to make it easier to view. But in this case I see how this is not good.

I can change this behavior, but I am not going to work on it right now.

No worries, it's not some super-high priority bug. If nothing else, it's just more of a confusion point at first and can honestly be counted as one of those "fixes of convenience"
