I disagree. The problems with the Python AI that have been described in this thread all stem from attempting to sandbox Python and thereby attempt to put a square peg in a round hole. Sandboxing is a very specialized problem. There are only a few languages that are any good at it; Python isn't one of them and neither is C++. Converting more pieces of Wesnoth to Python may or may not be workable, but this debacle is not evidence in either direction. -- Daniel Franke d...@dfranke.us http://www.dfranke.us |----| =|\ \\\\ || * | -|-\--------- Man is free at the instant he wants to be. -----| =| \ /// --Voltaire _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
