SRL Archive - Who Are You ? Who ? Who ?

Hai, uhm….

Well, I'm not great at these, I guess that I should point out that Simba really looks quite nice and powerful! I've used some of the more popular scripts, and they seem work great (I did tinker with them a bit, hehe.).

I myself am a Python (I seriously <3 this language.) and C(++) developer, the latter more out of necessity.

If anyone's interested, I'm into that special Python sauce like Pypy (Python implemented in Python, a Python VM) and Cython (Compile Python into C(++)), which is also part of the reason why I think Python is so cool, interesting and useful.

I've tried getting into Lape, but it's quite painful for me (imports are a mess, begin statement(?), etc…)
But I read it was developed here, which is quite an achievement nonetheless!

I saw a project to implement Python in some way into Simba on the repo, but it seems like that really didn't go far, which makes me a sad panda! :(

G'day, and welcome to the forum! Glad to see another experienced programmer join in on the fun. :D

I have no idea what happened to the Python for Simba idea, it was around before I joined. Maybe @slacky will know, he loves Python.

Welcome.

It was "discontinued" indeed.. However Lape achieves the task Simba was designed for (and a lot more).
Tho.. there isn't really any issue with wrapping up the CPython dll and use it from FPC (and add it to simba), it just was never completed, AFAIK.

Yeah, Lape lacks a proper module system (units). This is just something we have to hope to get in the future.
The way the $include-directive works is simply by including the code in the given file at the position it's included. This is good for some stuff, but it can truly be a mess when you are writing modules/libraries.

- I would not call begin a statement.

Thanks for the welcome!

It obviously does, but (when programming) sub-optimally in my mind. However I realise this to be somewhat my bias.

Anyhow if that ever got on track I'd really be happy to use it. I think it would also bring more actively coding people to this project, since a lot of programmers seem to be familiar with Python these days.

Right, it's much like (old) PHP in that regard. =]

Welcome to the party!

Have you been more interested in the rs3 or osr botting scene?

Also once you get the hang of scripting with lape it's really not very difficult… just maybe not what you would ideally like hehe

Thanks!

I play and bot rs3 exclusively, mainly out of impulse from me liking RuneScape's quests, but really disliking all the grindy levelling. (I'm actually more of a FPS person, but I always like a good story.) I also grew up playing the game so that probably helps. :)

I'm still using the account from then, which has never been banned for botting, which is pretty nice. Maybe even in part due to me questing!

Yesh that's the thing, I really don't like it, I've had to use Pascal, but never liked it and never really got far into it. Hehe.
