Plutonium IW5 - The future of scripting

LUA has a proven track record and has years worth of widespread usage to learn from.

+1 for LUA

justviper you, my friend, are a legend. And that is definitely not a compliment.
Lua sounds good, pawn looks pretty dead. Last commit was 3 years ago.

Take a look at SourcePawn it is actively developed and used by SourceMod which is a Source Engine mod.

Javascript would be cool, done something similar a while ago...

Hello Community,
We developers are considering to implement more scripting capabilities into the game engine. This because after using chai for a week now, we realized there are quite a few issues with it we cannot solve easily. We will attempt to resolve these issues but we would also like to look at other scripting languages. If you have any ideas about this, feel free to reply to this thread. Include the scripting language you would like to see and why you would like to see this scripting language being supported. Note: The scripting language must have C++ bindings, otherwise we will not be able to implement it.
Thanks!
The Plutonium Staff TeamInteresting.

c # is a nice easy-to-use language, teknogods uses InfinityScript, I used it for different projects and you can do practically anything in the game.

LastDemon99 The language is good, but IS(Infinity Script) was too cut back
- InfinityScript could not return arrays CallFunction or Fields (self.pers / BulletTrace / GetEntArray(fixed with cycle for 0 to 2048 and check field) and other)
- InfinityScript could not create new threads as it was done in GSC (there is version IS 1.5.2 there it was solved using IEnumertor)
- InfinityScript inadequately handled more Notify (goal, greande_fire, missile_fire and other [goal and others notifies has not been fixed even with the introduction of WaitTills simulation on IS 1.5.2])
IS worked poorly...
I wrote a fairly large script on IS and thought that I would die trying to circumvent its limits
I don’t think that someone will fix it all, and if you fix it all, then the old scripts written on the old version are unlikely to work

S3VDITO Yeah, I know, I just used it as an example. IS had many errors, regarding BulletTrace, and the Notifys you mention, I remember getting the correct values in version 1.1

C# is not a scripting language and is in fact a terrible choice for scripting.

+1 for JavaScript, +0.5 to Lua (good language but can be limited)

Either Lua or JavaScript - both of them are better than whatever was before (also I'm voting for them because I have at least some experience with them :P)
