I'm not saying I can't understand the current system but it's messy as hell. (No delimiters or parenthesis)


The current CC code is the cleanest I've ever seen. One line defines one variable.

Easy, simple, effective, and you can learn it, and master it, fast.

What the helll would it need parenthesis for, and I don't know what a delimiter is(not so good at terms, I just write code).

Post Re: Lua
Code:
player = CurrentPlayer() -- why does there need to be an empty bracket here?


I have written in quite a few codes and I must say this script is very similar to ActionScript (used in Flash) so I picked this up very easily, however I think it would be hard to MASTER so

Also I think the point about 'our' .ini files is that anyone (above say 10 and without brain conditions) could make a simple mod. show that Lau code to anyone who isn't interested in computing and they'll run away... quite literally... maybe

Post Re: Lua
if cc would use em, lua scripts would be something that would be pointed to from the ini files... like:

Code:
AddGameMode = GABrainFight
   InstanceName = My New Game Mode
   GameRulesScript = MyMod.rte/MyScript.lua
   ...


So, If you didn't want to mess with the lua stuff, you wouldn't have to. As far as I can think about it now, the lua scripts would only govern game rules and AI behavior.

Well if you put it like that, Data, then its fine by me.
But keep the normal variable system as it is now for Bob Dylan's sake.

OH hay, why not implement both, like have two different folders. .rtes will be loaded with CC coded, .whatever could be loaded as lua, thereby giving us best of both worlds, no?
