Hi, I am new to AGS and am a little confused as to how to script in AGS. AGS downloads 2008 Visual C++, but is it possible for me to somehow use the Microsoft C++ Visual Studios 2017?
Thank you.

AGS does not download 2008 Visual C++, it requires Visual C++ 2008 redistributable. These are libraries that are needed to run some programs made with Visual C++, such as AGS Editor, with the similar purpose as .NET Framework is required for programs made with C#. You need exact version of redistributable libraries, or the Editor simply won't run.

But you do not need Visual Studio or C++ to script in AGS. Scripting in AGS is done using its own scripting language, inside AGS Editor.
