Core Game vs. Mods

[Ponder]

The engine and fundamental game primitives are being written in C++. This is stuff like:

• The renderer (we use OpenGL)
• The path finding algorithms
• The physics systems (when we get to physics…)
• The client / server multiplayer bits
• The save / load game system
• etc.

Almost everything that you would consider the “game” is written in Lua, and is theoretically moddable.
