❔ omnicharp not working
I'm using vscode to edit my scripts in unity, however vscode's auto compeletion doesn't work.
from the google searches I did, omnisharp is causing the problem.
as It appears, the newer versions of omnisharp don't really work well with unity.
so how can I replace my omnisharp with an older version?

I assume when you say omnisharp, you mean c# addon for Visual Studio Code (powered by OmniSharp) by Microsoft. To install another version of an extension, click on the arrow next to the uninstall button, then install another version. then u will see version list for that extension.
I honestly never used vscode (nor updated it) to code c# code since few months back because it was buggy so i moved on to visual studio 2022 and things work flawless
thanks :)
u welcome
$vscode
1) Install the C# extension
2)
2.a) DO NOT USE OPEN FILE
2.b) Always use
Open Folder (from the File menu), and open the folder containing your sln file (or the folder containing the csproj if you have only one csproj)
3) To make the extension start and detect C#, either:
3.a) wait for the prompt that will appear on the bottom right of your screen that ask you if you want it to create some files, and say Yes
3.b) Command Palette (F1 or Ctrl+Shift+P) and type > .Net : Generate Assets for build and run
4) you should see a flame on the Status bar with the Omnisharp logo (see second attached screenshot)
5) it should load to finally say OmniSharp server is running (if not ask for help)

I think there was also some tag for setting up VSC with Unity...
it works fine, you just need to install the framework sdk globally (or point it to the unity's one, but I just installed framework). .NET framework 4.7.2 I think
and then create the project files
When using unity, you need to turn off modern dotnet
how?
how?
just install it globally
but I aleardy have
The useModernNet setting

Make sure you follow these instructions
Visual Studio Code and Unity
Visual Studio Code can replace MonoDevelop as the editor for Unity
