[solved]Totally newb question.

#1 Post by Omega2150 »

I just started making a game and I've learned a lot through the tutorials and everyone's questions and answers. So here it is:
What is a python? and what does it do?
I know total newb, but this is the first attempt at making a game. I've already started and have made a good improvement in it with just labels and inits, but I want to get more things out of it and some of the things seem to require pythons and I don't know what they are. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Python is the name of a programming language that, as far as I can judge, Ren'Py is programmed in. But I think you don't have to be a Python programmer to create Ren'Py scripts. Unless, of course, you want to expand the standard engine functionality with your own code. ^^

T_T Wow that's a lot to learn. I think I'm going to stick with what I know for now. Thanks for your help. I'll probably learn pythons only when I need to. For now what I know is working. Thanks for your help.
