Creating LUA Scripts

 

A LUA script, also known as a "behavior", is a file with the extension .LUA that can be applied to any dynamic entity within Game Guru directly from within the engine's map editor.

To create or edit a LUA script all you really need is Notepad. If using notepad, you just have to remember to save it with the .LUA extension and not .TXT.

There are also other programs that are much better to use for creating and working with LUA scripts, such as Notepad++, which is a free program similar to notepad only it will show you syntax coloring.

When you create a script it will be accessible to entities when you place it in the scriptbank folder located in your Game Guru steam folder on your computer.
