Hi, ive started looking into scripting in FMOD Studio and wanted to make a in FMOD tool for creating audio tasks in our bug tracking software using HTTP requests with async/await, but when i reload the files into FMOD Studio i constantly get syntax errors from the async keyword.

So is async not supported and if so what version of JS is?

Hi,

Unfortunately, we do not currently support this functionality. I have passed the suggestion on to our development team to look into it further.

Cool, that would be a very welcome thing, creating tools that could interface wither various web API would be really nice for bigger projects.
