UnigineScript
UnigineScript is a programming language used in Unigine engine and introduced by UNIGINE Corp. for optimizing a project creation process. It is similar to C++ in syntax, but includes some additional features.
You can read more about syntactical differences between UnigineScript and C++.
The purpose of UnigineScript is to make coding easy-to-use even for junior programmers and at once provide the most optimal engine usage.
Why use UnigineScript?
- Close to zero compile time, therefore increased iteration speed
- Automatic memory manager with garbage collection
- Object-oriented programming
- Built-in fast 3D mathematics
- Easy interaction with C++ code
- Large built-in library (more than 5000 functions)
Which platforms have UnigineScript?
Platforms supported by Unigine engine (Windows and Linux), no recompilation is required.
What does an UnigineScript program creating process look like?
UnigineScript program can be written by using a plain text editor.
There are two ways of running UnigineScript programs:
- Via the built-in UnigineScript runtime (by running an engine instance)
- Via any standalone CLI interpreter (usc) – the same way as .bat/.sh/.py scripts work
How do I get started with UnigineScript?
First, you have to learn how to program in UnigineScript. Read The Language information and try tutorial. You probably will need information about core and engine libraries, High-Level Script and Script Debugging for extended UnigineScript features.
