I have some doubts, to help please

Hello, I have thought to buy Torsion and I would like knowing some things before buying it:

- that has advantages.
- Is it possible to compile the video game with?

And another thing, where it might obtain good tutors on Torsion (on your functioning) and good codes of example and tutors on torquescripts (that is to say, the functions that it uses, etc).

Greetings and I hope that they could help me.

Torsion is an editor for TorqueScript. Torque will still compile the scripts that you write in Torsion. It is an advanced text-editor and debugger oriented towards working with TorqueScript. I would recommend downloading the demo and giving it a run for a little bit to see how it fits in your development workflow.

Ok thank you very much, one asks where information about the programming might obtain information on torquescripts, that is to say, in torque 3D, since I have been searching tutors but I have not found any.

@Carballo: There is a Torque Script reference here, and you can use the search function of the site to dig up lots of information not covered there for special cases and feature-specific script. The forums are also pretty helpful for people asking questions, and things are fairly professional here- which is remarkable, because this is site is located on the internet ;)

As for Torsion, I use it when working with the Torque engines, and it's really nice. There could be improvements of course(like icons for indent/unindent and comment/uncomment instead of just the keybinds, which are features I'm addicted to), but that goes for just about any piece of software. I've used other editors as well such as Brain Editor, which is also good, but being Torque-specific editor, I chose Torsion. It does debugging with breakpoints in script like VC++, and that's worth it just by itself...

I have installed the demo but, it is normal that it does not allow me to give to the green arrow for "Run start" and also there are some other functions that to use does not allow to me.
Why cannot I use these functions?
Greetings and help porfavor.
