I was browsing through my Downloads folder and saw some Python scripts dedicated to server side plugin. Can python scripts be loaded on HLDS? Can metamod load this stuff?
Python script file contains some anti exploit sort of stuff & since they are dedicated to HLDS, I feel sad losing them.

Nobody can really tell you what you can do with that script or how to attach it to HLDS (if even possible) unless you post code.

Can this interact with amxx?

IIRC, EventScripts was an alternative to MetaMod:Source. What does this have to do with Python?

[Relaxing]

AFAIK scripts are written in python language.

I've never heard of such a thing for HLDS.

The equivalent of EventScripts for HLDS is AMX Mod X, afaik. Also, it looks like EventScripts is dead and SourceMod seems to have replaced it anyways.

So, you'll probably need to write an AMX Mod X plugin do what you want it to do.

There is also this (for Source Engine also): https://forums.sourcepython.com/

I think python is better than pwn language for gamers because of this benefits:

• Python is very simple to learn and use and it's very powerful
• There are many documents and helpers for python
• It is more understandable and you can't write ugly codes
• There are many libraries for python so you can think bigger than pwn!
• No need to compile

But for now i think it's too late to make that for HLDS!
I believe valve should be free the counter-stirke after many years and open the source engine!

It depends, to me it's easy to understand languages with C-like syntax than python.

Doesn't mean you can use every helper for gaming. Everything can be done with pawn. I would say python community is bigger than pawn amxmodx community but I'm mixing apples with strawberies...
I bet less than 5% of "many documents" available are usefull for us.

Nothing stops you to build anything for amxmodx/metamod.
All open source libraries are available for both projects, you just have to integrate them.

Who said that?
Python is compiled on the fly (when the script is loaded).
Python is an interpreted language
Python scripts can be compiled to speed up
I bet interpreted python is slower than our loved pawn


You should elaborate why you should choose python over pawn.
For example:
* Python is object-oriented so it's easy to build and extend implementations.

Anyway, I think python has a huge community that is not oriented to our needs. We have a big community specialized for our game with a lot of experiences and know-how.

Very good points joropito.
