Title: List of LUA Tutorials/Resources
Post by: WMCoolmon on February 20, 2007, 03:19:54 am

Tutorials
Object-oriented Programming (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,45303.0.html) - Outlines how to create an object and use operators with it.

Reference
General FS2_Open Scripting (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/FS2_Open_Lua_Scripting) - Somewhat outdated, but it provides a general overview of core scripting concepts
Scripting.tbl (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Scripting.tbl) - Guide on all aspects of scripting.tbl
Scripting.html (http://fs2source.warpcore.org/exes/latest/scripting.html) - Somewhat outdated version of the scripting libraries/functions reference file. (Look up the -output_scripting command in the wiki for a fully up-to-date version)

The bottom of the FSO wiki scripting page also has links to the official Lua docs.

I'm getting a 404 on the scripting.html....  I also can't create one at the moment.

EDIT: Found a reference to a hidden Wiki article: http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Scripting_functions

You should use the documentation generated by FSO. There is a flag in the Dev Tools section in the launcher. That will make sure that you always use the documentation that is up-to date for the build you are currently using.

I have generated it before.  I really did not have access to FSO at the time.

...And you couldn't just download it? It's not like generating a scripting.html would require any assets...

The connection I was on was incredibly bad.
