So, I haven't upgraded to A7 yet. I'm reading the manual and one thing I really am confused about is this: Does A7 use C-Script as well as lite-C? Because the manual keeps giving syntax examples for both...why?

If I upgrade to A7 should I only be paying attention to lite-C (based on the assumption I'm only ever going to begin new projects)?

If I were to create a game that relied on Texts and Strings quite a bit, would A6 (updated to latest version) or A7 be better? i.e. is there more functionality in lite-C for Strings etc?

Thanks for any help in advance

A7 supports both. You can use C-script or Lite-C with it. But eventually C-script will be phased out I think...
