I'm just using extensions to refer to projects

or make.py

Regardless, when you break it down to these two options, Python is the obvious choice. 8.1 is way too buggy. I'm still pushing for a different language but whatevs.

How about Lua? It's more lightweight than Python, as well as being easier to learn. It's also faster. If you're interested feel free to hit me up with a PM and I'll gladly elaborate.

For some reasons, I think that PyGG2 is a better way than rewrite everything from scratch on GM 8.1.

No-one is suggesting starting from scratch on GM 8.1. If we chose that, we could more or less take everything we have now.
Only there are several bugs and workarounds we'd have to do first.

PyGG2 is rewriting from scratch, only we started rewriting that last autumn.

Doesn't Python make the game lag less because it uses TCP? But how much less lag will it have?

It uses UDP, which should make it lag a little less. How much less it lags is pretty damn hard to say, sorry.

You can try it out, PyGG2 now works with remote server-client connections. I've tried it with NAGN.
There's 0 compression or any kind of prediction going on though.

The server should never do prediction, obviously. What you need is input prediction + dead reckoning on sync error.

TF2 uses this, and with ping 500, i've only a bit of lags -______-

TF2 uses this only on hitscan weapons, which happen to be most of them, but in gg2 this would be sniper only.

[Phantom Brave]

the TF2 server runs no prediction at all, only the client predicts the state it has on the server and the server compensates for the fact that it does. Compensation on the server is ok, prediction ain't.

Terminology wars.
