:::And what effect, if any, does the fact that C++ was used have on whether or not it would be possible to write longer scripts than usually allowed? | :::And what effect, if any, does the fact that C++ was used have on whether or not it would be possible to write longer scripts than usually allowed? | ||
::::[[User:ShadowDancer|ShadowDancer]] 14:05, 12 July 2006 (EDT): Using Visual C++ or Visual Basic to build the construction set really doesn't make much of a difference (except for how the programming code is written and operates). For instance, Visual C++ runs faster than Visual Basic for visual display effects. As far as controls go, its pretty much the same in that the controls are pre-made and you drag and drop them to create forms and such (in this case, the scriptedit window). The other question to ask would be how much spacing are you putting into the script? Removing excess lines would shorten the number of characters but it is only one character per enter so it wont save much in spacing. Comments, on the other hand, could take up a large amount of usable space in the script due to the character limit. | ::::[[User:ShadowDancer|ShadowDancer]] 14:05, 12 July 2006 (EDT): Using Visual C++ or Visual Basic to build the construction set really doesn't make much of a difference (except for how the programming code is written and operates).
