Dang it, this is what I am talking about. People who don't read the entire post.
I quote myself
"Of course you wouldn't have to use Object Oriented programming to do something, but if you learned it, it would be a great deal of help. "
RapscaLLion you wouldn't need to even touch OO if introduced into DBP. In fact, in C++ you don't even need to program in OO. I am only ask that they put it in. What got you thinking that if they put that in, they would take something out that you use?
Yikes! I was doing work with the RPGToolkit, asked for one small feature on a forum and everyone there jumped on me. The head programmer(Actually the guy running the entire thing) said that he thought it was a very good idea.
To explain.
In RPGToolkit, in front of everyline of code you needed a #. I had asked for a switch that you could set to switch it off. Most people didn't like that idea, but I had mentioned in the post that you didn't need to do this, in fact, you could make it backwards compatible so that you could still end up using the # if you wanted to, but no, they ignored that I mentioned it and continued to rip at me.
I may have some radical ideas from time to time, but I am only bringing to the table what any normal programmer would want. My ideas are not to hurt or cause confusion.
And to answer Mirthin, think of this, if we really wanted to shock people, OO would be the way to do it. Think about it, they would never expect OO in Dark Basic because well, Basic never did have OO in it. A UDT is almost OO but you are missing the member functions and protecting the varibles that are implemented in the UDT. There is much more you can do with OO though than a UDT like Inheitence etc...
Please, stop reading part of the post. It's like only reading half a book and saying it was stupid because you stopped half way and never finished it.
"Yeah Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring was stupid because they only went to the Elves and had a small meeting and don't get me started on The Two Towers or Return of the King"
