Mystic BBS has an embedded Python engine which allows for an incredible amount of flexibility when it comes to creating modifications to BBS functionality, or even creating your own games.

Custom Python scripts can be executed by a menu command on any menu, and can also replace any prompt in a Theme's prompts file so that the script is executed instead of the prompt that normally we have been displayed. Python scripts can also be executed by MPL scripts and even other Python scripts as well.

This is a full implementation of Python, meaning you can use external modules to accomplish just about anything alongside with many built in BBS-related functions for user input/output, user security, BBS database access, and so on.

See the subsections of this documentation for information on installation, creating your first Python script, and a function reference.
