well on Arma if your wheels get hit you can't move so it must be possible to program this.

You can't just take code like that from one game and put it into another. The engines are totally different and it would probably blow up

Games are made in different programming languages, so you can't simply copy code from one source to another, sadly. BF2142, and thus FS, uses the Refractor (?) engine, while ArmA is based on something else. So no such luck.

Probably 99% of all games use C++. For its 3D API, most also use DirectX, some use OpenGL.

Python is the script language used by the BF2/2142 engine which is coded in C++. Well most likely, you cant do a game in Basic lol. Lisp... Forget about it . Java, perhaps... But since the game doesnt suck, its not based on Java. C# possibly but I dont think so. Assembler would take a *little* too long to code a game in.

Do note that what you see when you look at the game is not the *programming* language. Its the script or possibly define language (BF1942 and BFV used a define language, BF2 added a script language to it).

also c++ makes it so you dont have to have such high requirements to play a game.

Nope, no such luck. I was offered a testing slot, but they found it would be bit hard for me to test the game without actually owning BF2142, so they kicked me out .

It's already been discussed there. Safe isn't part of the Dev team though. Or at least if he was.... I didn't know about it....

Anyway, I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure copying code from one game and using it on another, if it were possible in the first place, would be copy right infringement, perhaps. I know other BF: 2 mods were going to take code from BF: 1942 and that came back as illegal as well, so I can only image what it'll be taking something that's outside of the franchise. Plus I'm not even sure how it's (Armed Assault) coded- BF: 2/2142 engine is codded with Python.... C++ for the hard code (not sure, a dev will have to correct me on that), while Armed Assault could use a different language. 

However, I too play Armed Assault and dang is it fun! You're definitely right and they have vehicle damage down to a T, good net code too, hardly any lag.
