Thoughts on Flash for UI addons

[Aistaraina]

Flash is very good at UI scripting. Look up Scaleform for what a flash based UI can do and what games have used it already.

There's even an MMO toolkit that gives a lot of the features they want. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...v=6t4skDLLf_E#!)

Scaleform also comes with a $10,000 price tag, and is developed by one of the leading companies in art and animation tools. You can't even get an evaluation copy unless you work for a well known studio. So throw that one out the window.

As for myself, I do a lot of UI work in C++, so i'd rather SE give us a small API to the engine and let us inject that in.

It comes with UDK.
