You know, that thing there actually scared me...

[Kate]

Then maybe the doomscript stuff should be split into it's own thread and the original Lua topic shoved into Off-Topic for further discussion if anyone has anything to add?

I have another question.

Will mod authors have access to data like an actor's target (and all data contained in that said target, like inventory), missile owner, and parent/child relationships - and do whatever they see fit with these data?

[HotWax]

From what I've seen of it, that certainly seems to be the case.

You will have access to every information an actor has, except maybe a few fields that are for internal engine use only.

I'm probably going to have to rewrite the whole project I'm working on now...

[Nash]

Likewise, Risen.

I imagine it would be a lot of more fun to do it the "right way" than the current army hacks I have right now, though. I'm going to enjoy the rewriting process I think...

[Risen]

Hopefully there will be a significant performance boost in it for us both.
