Are we still using AngelScript for the more gameplay-related features, by chance?
Edit: Oh, sorry about the double-posting.
Edit 2:
Thatโs good to hear! This is like, the most awesome news ever. Especially since my birthday is tomorrow, lol. This really made my day. Thanks!
It will all be C# as long as there arenโt performance problems, in which case we might need C++ modules.
Btw you should vastly prefer editing your posts instead of making multiple posts in a row.
If you are replying to something that was posted after your post, you should make a new post instead of editing. Itโs a bit weird when earlier posts are replies to later postsโฆ
Man, my forum etiquette is rusty. Sorry about that.
Just happy to see this change, I am excited to see the future development =D. All the best Devs. @hhyyrylainen
The test build doesnโt make my laptopโs fan roar. Great to see that.
Iโm a little curious about the choice of C# instead of C++, which was the most used programming language for Thrive
The GDNative interface that is needed to be used with C++ for Godot, isnโt covered by their documentation. It also makes exporting and compiling games much harder because you need to manually do that. The C# support in Godot is more built in and allows things like easy exporting to all platforms and easier setup. The only reason why a mac version is possible with Godot using C# is that it doesnโt need any custom compiling per platform.
I havenโt looked into it. I assume it is possible as many other projects also use godot that want to support modding. But for now Iโm just going to let anyone wanting to make mods figure it out. We didnโt have a lot of mods being made anyway, so I donโt consider it a critical feature for me to figure out how to make mods as well as write tutorials for it.
Itโs going to fix like a maximum of 10 engine related issues. It isnโt magic and canโt make new / improved features appear out of thin air. And it will add a bunch of new issues of the form โreimplement xโ as Iโm not going to wait for feature parity before making godot the master branch version.
Runs great for me too! Seems smoother than the current release, and I donโt exactly have a weak pc. That might be because itโs just a basic implementation though.
Okay, I was a bit wrong, I didnโt realize how many issues would be made irrelevant by the move to godot:
So is it good or bad?
Good, I guess? It goes to show how many issues were โengineโ related.
Works great! Although 0.4.3.1 isnโt working for meโฆ
0.4.3.1 is still based on the previous version. 0.5.0 will be the first version with Godot.
Do you think a good idea would be providing test versions like the one at the beginning of this thread as you progress? Forumites could check for bugs, and these tests would show the progress as it is happening.
