I was just wondering.
Is it possible to draw a picture inside a picture?
...eh?
Can we dream within dreams?
Compiling your own code in DS?
In response to GreatPirateEra
yeah
You could execute dm.exe to compile code, but you couldn't utilize said new code in a live world.

So its possible to make code in the dm.exe but can't use it?
Questions like this are like "Is it possible to use ovens to create fires to cook my food?"

It's possible to COMPILE code in runtime, but not UPDATE a game with the resultant binary (dmb) in runtime.

- Actually, you could sort of do that if you write your own in-game scripting language. That way, you could modify complex logic in runtime.
I've created a tool (with DM) that allows you to drag and drop cards to create your game. It has its own code editor and you can compile with it right away. Whats awesome with it is that the code editor features an auto-completion system so it helps you remember what arguments/params are supposed to be in a built-in BYOND function. Of course its far from complete but I'm really proud of it :3

The screenshots look good. I might personally use it to help me understand DM language a bit more.
