Re: why bgt dont continus
the vgstorm games do have the exact same system requirements as all other bgt games have, no other version used there. You can limit your game to Win 7 and above using BGT too, just by calling the necessary system dlls to retrieve the current windows version and comparing that one to a fixed value.
AngelScript however cannot be used to write a game directly, AngelScript is designed to describe dedicated languages, just like BGT.
The thing I thought about however is that it is technically possible to start a new project, implementing the exact same functions like bgt does (same parameters and return values as well as names), and make bgt interpretable with it, which would be a breeze. AngelScript can also run under linux and even mac if i'm not wrong, as long as someone tweaks the generated language to support it and provides the compiler for that platform, which is the thing philip never did. Implementing the exact same functions with the exact same functionality would be the hardest thing here, apart from enabling the same language features bgt used. New features could be enabled as well, such as class properties, which is a feature AngelScript offers, but BGT never enabled and i'm missing those badly right now.
Best Regards.
