doesn't really seem that slow for me (but of course, i haven't used it in anger yet).

the editor is enough for small scripts, but you can also choose to use your own native editor, or switch to the C# version (and use visual studio or jetbrain rider).
I don't find the scripting language any worse or better than any modern script languages. What are the missing features?

- jokoon 4y agoI guess most of these are syntax sugar or quality of life stuff. Gdscript is a lightweight language, it wants to be fast. They explain the goal of the language in their doc and why they didn't use something else.
