Reverse engineering Fallout 2

[malaise_chalk]

@Lexx I hear you. In general, getting Fallout 1 running correctly in F2:CE is something I've been thinking about so that two versions of the engine don't have to coexist (F:CE exists, but it's very unlikely it'll be maintained at the same level as F2:CE).

Could you point me to some docs about what exactly is needed, and how to test it? Adding features is feasible but I don't know much about SFALL and so it's hard to know where to start

We primarily need full array functions and many of the event handler functionality. Preferably all of them, for best compatibility of every mod that uses Sfall to date. https://sfall-team.github.io/sfall/hooks/

Poking around a bit, CE does have pretty decent sfall support already. For instance arrays: https://github.com/alexbatalov/fallout2-ce/pull/269 and global scripts (https://github.com/alexbatalov/fallout2-ce/issues/200) exist. I'll have to see what's missing in terms of hooks
