In the following, some of the more advanced features a ScummVM Engine may implement are described. We describe what advantage each feature gives to the engine author respectively to engine users, and sketch how to implement support for it. Features are roughly grouped and sorted by mutual dependency. | In the following, some of the more advanced features a ScummVM Engine may implement are described.
