So, now that switch statements are in, I can almost use Enigma with my Game Maker games. As in, only one game compiles.
Sooo, is event_user a bitch or something? Should I not be using event_user? Is event_user a horrible thing that should die?
Also, collision_circle. Replacing it with collison_rectangle works fine buuuuuut - actually no I just want to hear the technical reasons
And yeah. I'm going to go bother my tenants for rent now. Four days early. Thanks.
Also, unrelated, what the HELL is a callback in the context of why should I use it instead of adding a function pointer to a list or something? And yeah. That's it.
Yeah, these phone calls will be fun.

Event_user isn't all that hard; it's just gone unimplemented because its use is uncommon. If you bother us about it enough, it'll get done.
Collision_circle isn't in just because it requires math that's more fun to do out on paper than to implement in a collision engine.
Anyway, aside from callbacks often being threaded or handled by some other system, I don't see a difference between them and the list you described. At least in C++.

@Josh - My simple RPG engine that I posted about a while ago also uses event_user, so I guess it would be nice to have. (of course there are lots of other things the engine uses that ENIGMA would need but whatever) |

HaRRiKiRi is working on paths now, actually. I gave him a hand with converting GM's 0-1 path positions to a position on a segment and ultimately to coordinates. From what I've seen, they're coming along rather well.
He's probably going to hit a snag with preallocation and getting his constructor to do reallocation, but I'll help him with that if he needs.
As for user events, I didn't realize so many people actually had use for them. I will see about implementing them; there may be some additional memory overhead or it may be completely optimized out, but it should be easy enough to do.
