[h1]Slang: High-Level Programming for Stationeers[/h1]
Stop writing assembly. Start writing code.
Iterate faster. Stop writing assembly. Start writing code.
Slang (Stationeers Language) brings modern programming to Stationeers. It allows you to write scripts using a familiar C-style syntax (variables, functions, if/else, loops) directly in the in-game editor. When you hit confirm, Slang compiles your code into IC10 instantly.

[*] [b]Stack Access:[/b] Direct stack memory access is disabled to prevent conflicts with the compiler's internal memory management. A workaround is being planned.

[b]Q: Is this compatible with my current save?[/b]
A: Yes! Slang does not modify any existing IC10 code, it is only a compiler. As a matter of fact: if you wish to stop using Slang at any time, your compiled IC10 will still exist on the chip. However: Slang adds a comment at the bottom of your compiled IC10 which is a GZIP and base64 encoded version of your Slang source code. This might break line limits with Slang not installed. If you wish to no longer use Slang, I recommend you remove this comment from the source code after uninstalling Slang.
[b]Q: Does this modify the in-game scripting language[/b]
A: No! Slang compiles directly to IC10. Any valid Slang file will produce valid IC10. The goal of this mod is twofold:
[list]
[*] Allow experienced users to quickly iterate on their scripts to get back into base upgrades faster
[*] Allow newcomers who already know C-style languages (JS/C#/Java/Rust/C/etc) to see how it maps to IC10 so they can get to understand IC10 better
