Overriding scons flags

boruok

@Calinou hello, why scons uses profile=custom.py even if it's not specified in command? Tried to build editor after making android templates(with profile) with following command

scons platform=x11 target=release_debug debug_symbols=no bits=64 -j$(nproc)

but it compiles x11 template (godot.x11.opt.debug.64) not editor

Calinou

custom.py in the root folder is always used regardless of the platform by design. If you want to minimize the impact of this, do not write tools = "no" in your custom.py file (and move your custom.py file away when you don't need it).

missing tools=yes I guess

@Megalomaniak no, Calinou is right, scons uses custom.py even if profile not specified in command. So, who reads this topic, make sure that scons doesn't see any variable in custom.py, by erasing or commenting all lines.

Yeah, had not refreshed the page when I posted it, since I took a quick look at docs first and missed calinous post.

So far so good, i've managed to automate build task with VScode, i think it will be helpful for somebody, so i leave my config:
