Re: [projectx] Scripting

[Ben C. <cro...@ne...>]

I've e-mailed the Allegro list about Lua scripting, and a few guys have
replied (that have actually used Lua in games before).  I'm going to look
into this and see what it's like, but if anyone else wants to jump in and
do this -- research Lua and figure out how it can work in with our game --
then feel completely free to do so.  Yes, we're all going to have to learn
Lua eventually.  I suggest that those who learn Lua (for whatever reason,
whether it be interfacing it with everrything or networking or AI) teach
those who haven't yet.  Either that or they can write a simple tutorial on
it -- if nobody else wants to, I'd be willing to do that.  For those who
are interested, there are mailing list archives on the Lua website (that
have all messages posted since 1998 or 1997) -- some of that might help.

Later,
Ben (projectx)
