Question

I’m working on a game bot. I’d like to place there something like a scripter, my program is reading all the needed stuff from the game’s memory and I’ve got all of game-objects. I’d like to add something to my program that allows user to make his own scripts.

eg.

foreach (character ch in characters_on_screen)
{
if (ch.burning()) {game_say("burning!");}
}

I don’t really know if it’s hard to make, thats why I’m writing here :P, I’m working in c# and the scripter language doesnt really matter I think, coz all the game scripts arent going to be hard i think
So whats the easiest way to do that? (if theres any)
Thanks 🙂

p.s.
I’d also like to know if there’s a way to disable several functions, like creating files or so.

You can also get the C# compiler to compile C# code at runtime. Check out the runtime compliation classes in the Microsoft.CSharp namespace.

There’s also a tutorial here.

This way you could attempt to santise the input if you so wish; it simply takes in strings. As well as imposing restrictions like implementing an interface.
