Done. MODDER option FUN_ARGS will check that all LAUNCH arguments are also DEFINE arguments.

Absolutely.

Since MODDER is the established method for toggling these sorts of things, and this feature is of no use in production, would a MODDER option be acceptable?

I suppose this request is made with intention where the mod maker reads the entire .debug file to find the instances of input errors ? Perhaps it could be added to the MODDER mode ?

How straightforward would it be for WEIDU to give a WARNING if you send an argument to a function that isn't actually defined for that function? As in:

Code: [Select]
DEFINE_ACTION_FUNCTION square_this
   INT_VAR input_variable=0
   RET value
BEGIN
OUTER_SET value=input_variable * input_variable
END

LAF square_this INT_VAR input=4 RET value END

At present, WEIDU just ignores 'input' and uses the default value for 'input_variable'. In some contexts that leads to annoying silent errors, where it looks as if (e.g.) something's being patched but actually you mistyped the input.

Obviously it would need to require a preamble declaration to avoid breaking backwards compatibility: USE_STRICT_FUNCTIONS or something similar.
