are there any plans to move Frets on Fire to a different language?
python isn't a good language for a game i think, why not program it in C/C++?
(i know im like the millionth guy to ask this...)
are there any plans...?

Moved to Thoughts forum.
There's no plans to do so. It just turns out to be more work than anyone wants to take on.
And Python is a fine language to program a game in. Eve Online is a great example. Granted that C/C++ is more common.

And one more IMPORTANT thing, PYTHON IS BUILD ON C++(I think because why we get C++ Runtime Error? Maybe Python is made on C++?).

Actually, Python itself is written in straight C. Errors referring to C++ result from extension modules written in C++ and from the fact that the runtime support for the two languages (C and C++) has a lot of code that both languages use.

Python is a fine language for a game, sure there are some (small) things it can't do, but it is also alot more programmer friendly, so this game may not exist if it hadn't been done in Python (i.e. original coders may not have had time to finish it). To port it to C++ (or any other language) now would take a huge amount of time. Time that could be used to improve the existing game. So, no.

Although, I'm sure in the coming years, people will say that they're going to do it, but get in over their heads, and give up after a few days.

I knew it! Actually I was about to post with C only not C++. I guess I'm right and wrong.
