addEventListener

Then stop making a fuss about it.

If catchevent worked the way you and myself would like it to, I could make this:

PHP Code:

function addEventListener(obj,event,func) {
  obj.catchEvent(event,func);
} 


Yes, that could fit perfectly into your atan->arctan junk.

I'd like to keep general c-like based script standards in order to encourage more players to script.

GS2 is easy enough to learn. Personally, I see addEventListener as more confusing. Plus, it's not like people go around and say "HMM I COULD LEARN GS2 BUT IT DOESNT COMPLY WITH MY ECMA**** "

You say I do not understand consistency, when I am talking about standards. Standards are about keeping things consistent.

We have consistency. Consistency of GS2. There is no reason we need consistency for any other languages.

Actually, I will start a crusade to make GS2 compliant with my BASICStandards

This way, everyone coming from BASIC would be able to script GS2
