Game engine: Difference between revisions

[[File:Icon_widget_cogs_wheelsIcon widget cogs wheels.png|left]]A '''game engine''' is a piece of software used to power and control a game. An engine is tasked with various different game-related mechanics such as graphics rendering, physics, sounds, scripting, animations, AI and resource management.

This is the second engine used by the series. It replaces the isometric view of the original game with a full 3D rendering system. The newer engine also allows for easy distribution of [[Mod|modsmod]]s and [[custom content]], thanks to the <code>.package</code> file support.
