Is Kotlin scripting defunct?

[Piotr Krzemiński]

Why, and what do you mean?

[Shaun Wild]

I heard its no longer being support / worked on

Okay cool - thanks

[mbonnin]

I'm still mad at JetBrains for that title

[mbonnin]

(original title. Looks like the new one is better)

[Vampire]

The title did not change: https://web.archive.org/web/20241119175136/https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2024/11/state-of-kotlin-scripting-2024/

[mbonnin]

Interesting. Must have been the tldr; then? I can't remember. I had to convince someone else this week again that scripting is not deprecated

[mbonnin]

That article made some damage

[Shaun Wild]

The title suggested it was going defunct haha

[Shaun Wild]

To me

[Vampire]

How does "State of Kotlin Scripting" suggest that the feature is going defunct? o_O

[mbonnin]

Let's say title + tldr;

[Shaun Wild]

Idk just the vibe I got 🤷🏼‍♂️

[mbonnin]

@Vampire it's documented that people got those kind of vibes

Which, if you read carefully the article is not the case but the wording was a bit misleading

[Vampire]

Of the article, yeah.
But it was said here that the title suggested it and that I did not understand 🙂

[mbonnin]

I'll choose my own wording more carefully next time

[Vampire]

It was not just you 🙂

I’m planning on making a game engine using kotlin scripting

[Shaun Wild]

Where assets are represented as scripts

[Piotr Krzemiński]

Curious about a PoC! What kind of game will it be?

[Shaun Wild]

I am making a game alongside it called Runecraft

[Shaun Wild]

You connect runes together to create unique spells

[Shaun Wild]

And then can use it in PVP and PVE

There's an early video showing some network sync stuff
