Wait, whys the convo on coding now?

Wasnt it electric cars before

Because we are actually qualified to talk about coding

@GingaBomber Because ping and I disagree on the definition of "<Language B> is a superset of <Language A>"

The compilers let you deviate from the specs but that doesn't really count as a language feature

Well I guess, but my expertise is only in C++ and C#

More C# now sincei ts easier to develop games in

i made a diagram awhile ago one sec

XNA still a thing? Haven't looked recently.

@Grenade123 I think I read about that a few years ago, but I don't remember the context

I mean, I have a book on it from a few years ago but it was when the xbox360 was still the main xbox, before the one

@ping Okay, I'll concede that you're probably right in that C++ isn't a *perfect* superset of C, but as far as most programmers are concerned, it's close enough as to not make a difference

@GingaBomber let me guess, unity? 😢

good when you want to work in small teams

and cant afford the assets to make full use of Unreal

i mean i'm on a 3 person team and unity was just completely awful

VR specifically

Cause no source control?

we dont even use the unreal source control features

unity is just so boilerplate heavy

among other things

well, I worked on unreal with a team

and I found that awful as well

And well. I didnt like the build times

Personally preference it seems.

I dabble in UE4 a bit. Not coding or blueprints though.

and it would often crash when making release builds

Unity's level editor is better

Unreal have the same release build option support?

But then, I also worked in Construct2 and Gamemaker, so shitty structure is not an issue for me

I dabbled in UE4 with a friend a few years ago, and it seemed bloated for what we were doing

Why you ask, uni course requirements

unreal has an excessive amount of build options

ugh

Ayy, good old construct and gamemaker

One of those didn't have a proper if statement or something similarly common if I remember

Think it was gamemaker.

It had an or condition, which was not the exact same

gamemaker had if

you just didnt need the brackets
