Gs1/gs2?

I dont know the dif between GS1 and GS2...
so is this GS1 or 2?:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (playertouchsme) {

  hide;

  sleep 3;

  show;

}

GS1

GS2 would be:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onPlayerTouchsMe()
{
  hide();
  sleep(3);
  show();
}

so if gs2 is newer then why is it more complex like instead of "if" u use function?
it seams like a downgrade...
does it have more posiblilitys or something?

Go read on object-oriented programming.

If's should not exist outside of a function or procedure in any language.

Besides, you cant "call" if (created), HOWEVER, this becomes possible in gs2

PHP Code:


		
			
function onPlayerChats() {

  if(player.chat == "init")

    onCreated();

}

You decide which is simpler ...

GS1:

PHP Code:


		
			
setstring this.blah,strtofloat(#s(this.blah))+strtofloat(#s(this.add));

GS2:

PHP Code:


		
			
this.blah += this.add;

It's a much more powerful language. It suppors more, everything new that is added to the engine is put into the new language.

Since the language is dynamically typed, you don't have to worry about #v(), #s() and #I(). Just variablename = value;.

Because functions are more powerful in GScript2, with return values, public and "player" functions, it's much easier to organise and reuse code.

Because things are objects, they're much easier manipulated, used and understood (i.e. the player is the 'player' object, the NPC or current object is 'this', etc.), and scoping is much easier defined.

It all just makes more sense.
