| 11:50 | <&jeroud> | I think it's time for me to finally learn lua properly, and AoC seems like a reasonable excuse. |
| 11:50 | <&jeroud> | Is there any documentation or whatever that any of you can specifically recommend? |
| 11:53 | <&[R]> | Lua's own docs seemed fine |
| 11:53 | <&[R]> | I never could get over the syntax though |
| 11:54 | <&jeroud> | I'm not expecting to like it particularly, but I am expecting to find it useful from time to time. |

| 12:15 | <&ToxicFrog> | I learned it by reading the Lua reference manual and would recommend it, it's very clearly written. |
| 12:16 | <&ToxicFrog> | One thing to watch out for is that even minor releases often break compatibility, so make sure you're reading the manual for the version of lua you're actually using |
| 12:17 | <&ToxicFrog> | The latest is 5.4; the most popular version apart from that is LuaJIT, which is 5.1 with some useful features backported from later versions. |
| 12:38 | | Kindamoody is now known as Kindamoody|afk |
| 12:40 | <&[R]> | Is that why ComputerCraft was stuckon 5.1 for a while? (Might still be) |
| 12:40 | <&[R]> | I know OpenComputers notably had 5.2 |
| 13:03 | <&ToxicFrog> | That might be it, but it's also worth noting that ComputerCraft and OpenComputers don't use PUC-Lua or LuaJIT, they use a Java reimplementation |
| 13:03 | <&ToxicFrog> | So it might have been as simple as needing to wait for the Java port to get updated |
| 13:03 | <&ToxicFrog> | That said, yes, generally it's considered rude to update the version of lua your game/mod is linked against in ways that will break user code |
