What do I make Lua coding with and how do I do it?

Postby DaSpongeBobMan » Tue Nov 25, 2014 11:11 am

I dragged the Lua file in my SMBX folder, I set up everything for Lua, but it did not work. What did I do wrong? How do I make Lua codes and what do I make them with?

As far as I'm aware you can't code LUA files to make things work with vanilla SMBX.

If that's not what you're getting at, you should provide more information on what you're actually trying to attempt.

You do it exactly like other lunadll stuff, just as a .lua file instead of a .txt. Of couse, you have to know how to code in LUA, so better learn how if you don't already know.

You change the .txt to .lua? What if it doesn't work?

Use notepad, notepad++ or sublime text to make lua files.

It maybe that you made a .txt file but you didn't noticed it because windows hides known extension by default... so you might have a file called "lunadll.lua.txt"
Check out this video how to deactivate that:

It is just a guess....

And for the lua reference check this out:
Most recent lua reference
Outdated lua reference but still some samples (You can see example at the bottom of the page)
