@ RickV, thank you for your input, disappointed there is nothing else on offer as yet but it is basically what i was expecting.
To sum up, short term the new IDE and the Vulkan engine, although this is huge.
Medium term to add Linux platform.
Long term, well know body really knows just yet but sounds like we might have a say.
The new IDE clearly adds some brilliant bells compared to the Classic version, but will be missing some whistles. Export to HTML being the obvious and who knows what else until i try.
But I am sure this could be added at a later date.
I suppose i can still use Classic if there is a feature i need to use in the medium term.
I was disappointed with how slowly the Classic command base expanded but maybe with this added revenue we might see an improvement in this area.
So I am voting with my heart and not my head and confirm my decision to purchase since i believe TGC will deliver.
One more on board.
Good luck TGC.
