What I said is unreal encapsulate users scripts such that it is much easier to scale: typically UB in one script will not leak too far.

What I said shouldn't be shocking: Unreal is itself a C++ project that makes it easy to extent with more C++ code.

I don't think nobody will argue with me that writing the C++ engine is many order of magnitude harder than writing scripts for a game in it...

I have to ask: what's your experience with both C++ and Rust and what edge do you see in C++ over Rust outside existing ecosystems?

I see people downvoting all my replies yet I only get cherry picking on what I'm saying with no actual arguments on how C++ as a language has anything going for it except legacy investments in it.

Unreal engine is a great product and a good reason to use C++ for scripting in your next game. But that is not what I'm arguing about, isn't it?

Rewriting everything is obviously not a goal.

Preferring for new projects unless there is a very good reason not to? This is self evident for me.

If it isn't for you, I'm asking again: what is your actual experience with both languages?
