Compiled code is code that you write, hit "build", wait for the computer to think really hard, write out machine-readable code then run the executable. Normally you script with something like Lua because it has easier abstractions and new code can be re-loaded ("hot loading") into the game without rebuilding the entire game (which can take minutes to hours depending on the size of the game and build system).īecause scripting languages are interpreted they are often some degree slower than compiled code.
The interpreter is the thing that takes what you write and runs it in more or less real time as it reads/ interprets it. Lua is used in many game engines as it's internal scripting language because it's interpreter is small and easily embedded. They target different parts of the programming eco system and both are used to great effect. I don't want to start a holy war but the phrasing here might lead people to think Lua is some terrible choice and C# is going to change everything. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingĭesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creeschĬ# (modern programming language as opposed to Lua which is a scripting language)./r/gaming4gamers - middle ground between purely-for-fun and more serious subreddits./r/GamingLeaksAndRumours - Leaks and Rumors.Posting unmarked spoilers will result in removal and warning, and posting spoilers with malicious intent will result in a ban.
