LUA scripters?
 
I guess you all know about C++ scripts. But any guys here who are familiar with LUA?

:boxer:


Code:
function hurtplayer(e)
Detect = PlyrDist(e)
Health = Health(e)
 
if Detect < 100 then
Health(-1)
end

end

Add a counter to trigger

Code:
InjuryCount=0

function hurtplayer(e)
Detect = PlyrDist(e)
Health = Health(e)

if Detect < 100 then
Health(-1)
InjuryCount=InjuryCount+1
end

if Health > 1 and InjuryCount==5 then
action(e,1)
end

end
Works with any engine that reads LUA, all you need is an IDE (or code editor like Notepad++) find the syntax for the engine functions and away you go with your own scripts.

Hey, you know LUA? Is it similar to C++?

LUA is easier and been around longer AFIK

Yis. LUA is a easy language.

I'm no expert, having limited time in this field but as I've come to understand it, it's like a universal secondary layer of control.

For instance, once a game engine's been compiled in C# or C++ you can modify it with LUA (if incorporated) without recompiling the whole thing.

I'm a prankster :insane:

Yeperoony. :rofl::run:

:dontknow:

Here's the correct version. :read:

Code:
InjuryCount=0

function hurtplayer(e)
Detect = PlyrDist(e)
Health = Health(e)

if Detect < 100 and InjuryCount<=5 then
Health(-1)
InjuryCount=InjuryCount+1
else
Health > 1 and InjuryCount==5 then
action(e,1)
end

end

The above is an example of the sort of error(s) an IDE might not pick up, so debugging code can still be reliant on a sharp eye. :cool2:

BTW I know next to nothing about C++ but I imagine it's similar in structure to a lot of programming languages and still uses Boolean as a basis for it's logic structure but is more complex than any other that I know of.

I don't think it was created from scratch, it's an ancestor of a previous language like basic or C# I think.

Perhaps you know more about that than I do.

I know nothing bout the C family of programming language :V And i dont even wanna learn it. It is so tough and booooooooring. LUA is a way way way way better for me at least!

Stompen & City Ace, wondering if u can help me. I got this old BHD stat uploader for Neos Chronos v1.9.0. It's written in LUA script. I can't seem to make it work. It won't upload stats. I got this message...

Quote:
Uploading server status to https://www.mywebsite.net/module/Neos_Chronos/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
server = "nginx"
connection = "close"
content-type = "text/html; charset=UTF-8"
date = "Wed..."
vary = "Accept-Encoding"
No data sent
I tried several fixes including changing the HTTP backend server in my Synology DS214play NAS web server from Nginx to Apache to editing some LUA files without any luck.

The uploader file you can download here.

I have no idea of it ;___;

What makes the MEd so great is it really is fun in it's way, mainly because it's visual and it's not all booooooooring like C or as complex as LUA script either.
