RPG or FPS

Post by owenisred »

Ive been considering moving back to RPG mode - simply for the spells :) However I remember from a long time ago That RPG mode wasnt as good as FPS mode with respect to certain things. Just wondering what the main present differences between the two modes are.

PS - would it have something to do with not being able to go online in RPG?

Well, kinda. RPG development wise is much farther along than FPS. But FPS is much easier to script with. If there was some stable documentation I'd definitely take the time to learn RPG scripting.

Sorry, I meant was that since the scripting is different the functions will be too. So instead of e for editmode it's programmed to open/access things. Things like that make up the majority of the difference.
