Hello, i am a 13 year onld wanting to make my own games. I have experience on coding, i know php, javascript, html and basic.

Can c-script pretty much make any game a human could want? Is it very flexible is what im asking.

Flexible, and you can make many gametypes,
but this does not come for free,
so dont plan on the next MMORPG Blizzard Buster,

try to make a small casualgame, (like pong) first, and get all the knowlegde together to
realize this first project.

The following statements, expressions, lists, opinions, etc. refer to the C-Script 'language' in it's current non-beta state and do not accurately reflect C-Lite or other 'addons'. It seems that 'addons' (C-Lite, the replacement language for C-Script?) might be sold as separate products in the future to help compensate for the 'horrible' short comings of the current C-Script 'language'.


Code:

---

(Some items may appear to be 'duplicates.')
missing feature (C++ plugin written by me to compensate; testDummy plugin)
dynamic arrays can be implemented	(tD plugin)
local array sizes larger than 3 elements (tD plugin)
multi-dimensional arrays (tD plugin)
structures													
linked lists (tD plugin)
vector arrays (tD plugin)
hashtables
string arrays
string lists
if else, elseif, etc.
switch
for			
short-circuiting operators
functions with more than 4 parameters
function overloading
memory allocation/deallocation

...Other individuals may add to the list if those other individuals are not too busy sending flames in my direction.

Is C-Script suitable for a 13 year old who wishes to make games, a 13 year old that may have programming experience with php, JavaScript, and BASIC? Probably, but that is merely a 'weak' opinion and I can't state that I know many 13 year olds personally. If anything, the simplicity of C-Script may make the product more suitable or desirable, but some of that may change with the 'official' introduction of Lite-C.

Do I think C-Script is a comparatively 'flexible' language? I will not lie in this instance. I certainly do not think so.

Quoted juggalo10101.
My extremely short answer to this is question, is "no", but again, that is merely my opinion.
Do I think that some 13 year olds might derive much entertainment value from the 3D GameStudio product? My ridiculously brief answer to this question is, "yes".

It seems the community provides good support and there are plenty of usage 'examples' available. This may not be true for comparable products in the same 'class'.

Are you saying A6 is not capable of creating a MMO game?


Noob65

it is so capible that it is capable to be capible

That still didn't answer the question, and I'm sure you misspell from time to time too. LOL

Noob65

A6 is as capable as its user.

The limitations mentioned by TD don't make it impossible to write an MMO, they just make it more difficult and more annoying.

So there are no limitaions with C-script?

Noob65

There are limitations to any language. Test dummy mentioned some limitations of c-script that are especially problematic. However, there are always other ways to program something, and these limitations are not a 'show stopper' for any kind of game.

In terms of scripting, C-Script is limited, A6 is not. C-Script has many deficiencies (none that have affected me yet, but I'm not a proffesional programmer), but with C++ plugins almost anything can be realized in the A6 engine. The engine might not be as powerful as some other 100grand engines, but with a bit more work, it can produce high quality games. it just takes determination.
