Runtime compilation feature about brackeys-bot HOT 5 CLOSED

That wouldn't really work because a lot of scripts will depend on the UnityEngine or UnityEditor assembly.

You could get them by compiling a blank unity project but I'm not sure it will work. The project is a .Net Core project and Unity is .Net Standard 4.x (there might be a .Net Framework 2.0 which you can use with .Net Core but I'm not sure if unity has that). So you'd need to create bindings.

This is definitely a good idea, need further investigation.

That's true. What about syntax checking? Syntax checking is possible without other assemblies AFAIK.

Syntax checking is pretty trivial. Now that I think about, just compiling code wouldn't be really useful either since the one posting the code block would notice errors / warnings in their editor / unity / terminal.

Unity doesn't have .Net Standard 4.x. In fact, .NET Standard 4.x doesn't even exist.
Unity has three options:
.NET Framework 3.5
.NET Framework 4.6
.NET Standard 2.0
The third one is usable with .NET Core. Just saying :p
I guess runtime compilation would be dangerous as well. We don't really have a way to sandbox the application so.... it can pretty much do whatever it wants. That would be a remote code execution vulnerability.

I missed up Framework and Standard :P
