<div class="IPBDescription">I need some help..</div>hello,

sorry if there already was a topic on this but the search button show me errors :s

i would like to learn more about lua. i already learn its syntax,

but how can i test some scripts the same way NS2 will work ?

if one of u got a tutorial which explain how to make plugins in a game 'like' ns2, that way i'll be at ease when ns2 comes out.

hoping someone will help.. :)

    Unfortunately, there are no NS2-specific examples of LUA yet. I don't think they are going to want to release any code until the game is near-finished.

    I would get accustomed to the stock Lua flavor of Object-Oriented Programming by going over <a href="http://www.lua.org/pil" target="_blank">Chapter 16: Object-Oriented Programming</a> and practicing the concepts described there. There will likely be some subtle differences/features with NS2s flavor of Lua though, but as White has already mentioned, we haven't gotten any good looks at them.

    There's a bunch of threads about this in the General forum, but basically you should just learn the language.. so you don't have to learn NS2's API and the language at the same time.
