In a way, this system reminds me of Light Table[1] in its ability to change some code/settings and get instant feedback. It totally changes the way people create content because it becomes so much more accessible and so much faster to see changes -- you can play around with a lot of different approaches more quickly, resulting in more room for experimentation.
Pretty amazing stuff! Really curious to see the tools that power all of this, as well as hear the architect's (or architects') vision for all of this
Being able to compile code and reload it while the engine is running is something that has existed in many engines for several years. What's cool here is that the engine keeps running while editing and compiling, then it auto-reloads and pushes the changes when compiled.
Yeah definitely -- I guess what I meant was that there's now an interface to manipulate code, without having to touch code, and then it automatically goes through the process you mentioned
