Modders have been warned that they will have to deal with an updated Python engine, probably from November so I wonder what the new version will be capable of. The November date might mean that we get a new expansion or pack that needs it.
It's still early in the 3 years and out, and your showing proof of them updating the engine. They still want our Modders, that's a big win for simmers.
From what I've heard Python 3.7 is better at alerts for code conflicts, so it possibly could help in preventing bugs. And since they probably have to rewrite code anyway, that might be why no bug fix patches for September and October. November's content (terrain tools, new career, and possibly another pack) more than makes up for the delay. But bringing in a new version of Python isn't something you do if you're planning on ending a game any time soon.
Exactly.
Someone even asked Grant if they were going to up the requirement of the game for the new Python and Grant said not right now but they might in the future as the game ages and they improve more things. Indicate this game has a lot more planned for it than 3 years if you ask me.
