[Question] Scripting

from Elemental Forums

Hey guys,

I have been watching the progress on the Dynasty mod and got to thinking based upon the responses from the Devs on the various questions so it can be implemented and started thinking.  Is it possible to add scripts into the game through the DesktopX files that the game uses for its various screen UI's?  I know that many of the games basic functions are within the exe file but I was wondering if this could be used as a work around instead of diving into that code?  I don't have any experience with DesktopX other than tinkering fora limited time and getting the screen to open and fining out it has a scripting function, hence why I am asking.

Thanks guys.

Definitely if scripts could be used that would open a world of almost limitless possibilities!

Scripts in dxpacks are useless for anything other than to alter how UI pieces display themselves. The data sent to each UI piece can not be altered with such a method to produce improved results.

Alright I was hoping this might be usable as a work around for adding scripting to the game.
