I read an interesting [url=http://thedailywtf.com/articles/do-you-think-this-is-a-game]post about game engines on TDWTF[/url], figured y'all might enjoy it.

Well, Rich D is trying his hand at making a few X-COM 2 mods, and thus is exploring the quirks of Unreal Script for Unreal Engine 3 (or, more precisely, the highly modified version of the Unreal Engine used by X-COM 2).

He’s found a few quirks of his own:

1) Basic data structures that we take for granted, like maps and sets, don’t exist.
2) If you’re in a static function, you can’t call another static function that takes a delegate as a parameter. Even if the delegate is also a static function.
3) If you’re looping over an array of structs, for and foreach have different behavior
4) If a variable is None (Unrealscript’s equivalent of null) and you try to access something in it, that only results in a warning and your function continues executing anyway. No need to declare “On Error Resume Next”; for convenience
