On top of a bad standard library, older versions of the Unreal engine are loaded with comical exploits. I found a way to get files loaded into anyone's System directory in pure Unreal Script. Kind of makes me scared to play UT and KF now >_>

That's forgeted. Have you reported it to Unreal?

and here i am, trying to figure out how programming languages even... work.
I tried starting with Javascript, failed.
Tried starting with C++, forgetin' failed.
I've tried starting with TorqueScript like 4 times before and failed,
and this time, I'm starting to get what's going on, but like half the stuff doesn't make sense.
How does this exist?
where did it come from?
these two questions seem to hold me back since If I don't know where the variables are coming from (just to give an example.)
Then how the hell am I supposed to know where to get other variables should I need them?
and that's just the beginning.
