Hello all, First of all, sorry if this is not the correct forum category to post this, I hesitated between Modding and Game ideas. So... we know that CIG wants to implement working arcade machine that we could use in the verse, either in the bars of the verse or even in the recreation room of some big ships such as the 890Jump (if I well remember). We expect them to port some of the mini-game that they released on the web site. The problem is that making an arcade game within a game will take developers time for a minimal added value to SC compared to the development time. Instead, I think that would be smart for CIG to let the community develop and propose games for the Arcade Machine, as I'm sure a lot of Modders would be happy to contribute by making many different games for the Arcade Machine. To do so, CIG would just need to embed a scripting language, and I personally would recommend Lua, as it is a light and fast scripting language, and probably the most popular scripting language among game developers. This is for example the scripting language chosen by Dual Universe to let the players develop logical brick. It is often chosen by game developers as it is also a safe language since the interpreter is designed to be imbedded inside a host application (i.e. the game here). The footprint of the interpreter is also very small. Once integrated, CIG could provide a small API to get the Arcade Machine inputs (typically the 4 direction, and 2 to 4 action buttons) and to display sprites on a virtual screen (that later the game engine render on a Building Block UI panel). The games could be stored on your hard-drive in a sub folder of your USER folder for example: C:\Program Files\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE\USER\Arcade\TestGame C:\Program Files\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE\USER\Arcade\CoolOtherGame The distribution of the arcade games by he community could be as simple as providing a zip that you can copy in the arcade game folder (i.e. "USER\Arcade" folder) and SC could parse this folder whenever the player interact with an Arcade Machine in the verse. The Arcade Machine could then list the available games and let the player choose, or each Arcade Machine in the bar could play a game chosen randomly among the ones available in the USER\Arcade folder. CIG, please let-us make those Arcade Machine games for you! Yours.
