SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

Could you please evaluate this link what I was after was after was some way to use  SQL  with appgamekit. I think this may be it. 

https://github.com/AmiDARK/PluginKIT-For-AGK

Could somebody please tell me if this has what I am looking for. SQL integration.

Can you tell us why you think this "PluginKIT-For-AGK" offers SQL integration?

Simply searching for "SQL" in the repo did list 0 hits...

I was told it by AI when I asked and pointed in that direction

here it is again but I cleaned it up and it works.
https://github.com/AmiDARK/PluginKIT-For-AGK

Derron I am pretty useless when it comes to this sort of thing so you might have more of a clue than me so please let me know.

I am not talking about the originally broken link ... I am more baffled how you "stupidly" (in the sense of "not asking yourself") trust what the AI tells you. Yes, sometimes they tell you the truth ... but simply asking chatgpt to tell me who the authors of my game are ... and what the game is about, revealed a lot of hallucination (it told me two guys who I do not know created the game ... and that the game and even the sequel (which does not exist) are available at two given github links -- the second did not even work).

So what to do? you visit the github page it proposed ... and simply do a code search (available if you are logged in) ... you want it to have "sql" stuff in it? then chances are 99% that function or class names or at least a readme will contain the term "sql" (case insensitive). This is not the case for the repository you linked above... so NO, it does NOT extend "DB" (Dark Basic?) or "AGK" functionality in these regards.

BTW I tend to say you are more likely looking into sqlite (local sq-language based querying and storage thingy) or simply writing some webservice (eg a RESTful API) running somewhere (so maybe written in PHP or whatever you like) and your application then doing all the queries or "data interaction" via such an API .. .so "https://www.example.com/API/blabla/get/3" and the likes.

I feel being able to interact with a local data base important for retrieving  and storing information, updating records and creating a new one when needed.  

If you want to implement SQL, look at https://www.sqlite.org/ it's not that difficult to use, but you need a little knowledge of C.

Do you actually need SQL? You could just use the file commands provided by AGK https://www.appgamekit.com/documentation/Reference/File.htm

Yes I think the inbuilt file commands would do. Kevin Cross also has an SQL integration tool on Github.
I wanted to know if it could be done for future reference. If it had been a resounding no then I would have
been very very upset.  It does everything I need for now. PureBasic is there if I ever need it although I think AGK is faster to develop on and easier to use, for me anyway. OGRE itself is pretty easy and is nice to use however the world is carved up differently with 0,0,0 being the center of the terrain. OGRE and AGK 3D
are both really good and easy to use.  I haven't used the new ogre 14.3 yet and I really need to write a game from start to finish to comment. I'm gonna use AGK S for my next game and until I no longer find it useful. Who knows how long that will be 5 years or maybe 10 years it could outlive PureBASIC we'll see I suppose.  Enjoy your day.

That link I put up I think is corrupted with a virus so I would urge not to use it. Maybe a mod could remove it. 

Just edit your post.

it will not let me option not available.

If you click on 'More' (on the right hand side of your message)  don't you have an option to modify?
