Orius 26 Report post Posted September 22, 2018 Where did you guys learn the language Lua? I've been reading the 5.3 reference manual, but i'm worried that it is not a reliable source; it is a few years old, and I'm not sure how recently the syntax was updated. Thanks for the input. Here's the reference manual in case you want to check for relevance: https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vulcore 26 Report post Posted September 22, 2018 I am also just starting to study LUA. After a bit of research I decided to go with the IDE zerobrane. Here are links to the resources i have found helpful so far. https://studio.zerobrane.com/ http://lua-users.org/wiki/TutorialDirectory I also bought these 2 books : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0470069171/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1789343224/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Hope this helps: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that i have watched a few vids/tutorials and started to get an idea of how to implement lua. I just watched this Vid and used the link invideo to get the game script and play around with it in ZeroBrane . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfox 148 Report post Posted September 26, 2018 As mentioned with another guy. https://www.eclipse.org/ldt/ Good software to use. And the latest book is: Programming in Lua fourth edition, by the original creator of LUA. Roberto Ierusalimschy. The old stuff is still applicable. New LUA just has a few extra functions and life improvements. Outside of that. I suggest using google to look for things, there's a full stream of free and well written teaching materials out there.
