Python? You know we were using Python back in Windows 3.5. maybe back in 3.1, it's been years so it's hard to remember. I think there was a newer version around the time we got Windows98 to use with it. And isn't it one of the reasons or is there another reason TS4 can't utilize DirectX11 but still using DirectX9? Wow, we can go back to DirectX6? Reckon we can code the game mods in DOS?
ETA: Are we going back to floppy discs? Python is a big hit for games there.
ETA: Here you go, want to build a game in Python, have at it.

Well the creator of Python just won the Noble prize for it for advancement in mathematics, science - you name it - seems perhaps it's better than you think - sort of indicates top dog wouldn't you say. Especially seeing this is at least the third time Python has won the Noble prize that I recall - maybe even more than that.

How many games use Python is the question when it's used for data analysis. That is the question. Python was used for simple games years ago, maybe they use it for all those pop up messages you get in TS4. As I said no one is knocking Python as a computer language program/software/ concept but how many modern games use Python? We are talking about games, not how well this can gather data or write apps.
ETA: What most people don't know is Python was free. I'm not sure a newer version will be free for Windows 10. And if you want to undestand how Python is used you can learn Python in seven days. This is the last time I hope I have to speak about Python.
