Lua Coding

[LilSwish722]

I am starting to learn how to be a LUA Coder. I was wondering if anybody had some incredibly in-depth tutorials and the tools that I need to be a Coder. I would love to give back to the homebrew scene, so I would appreciate anyones help.

firstly get familliar with the lua coding lunguage, I suggest reading this on-line book of lua coding find it here.

once you do that read the reference book to stay famillair with the lua find that here

after that then get familliar with the psp lua version and its codes find that here

once thats done your ready to do a quick tutorial find that here

then your about ready

i tried evil mania and did pretty good until the button input thing then i would run it and it would say smething about it cant find 's' and then it would continue to run and shut off...now thats all it does.

"EDIT"--haha i relized why it automatically shuts down...i left out the
luaplayer script.lua
pause

line lol...but i would still like some help...especially from an experienced coder lol

but dont you find it ironic that i once said lua isnt that good and now im wanting to be a lua coder...odd huh lol.
Thanks for your help guys

[LilSwish722]

im not entirely sure what im making. its on evilmana.com and im at the tables part of the tutorial. i understand most of it though

You need to have an idea to create

[LilSwish722]

i do have an idea, but im still not entirely sure how to code and stuff. so until i learn all the terms and codes and stuff like that i cant put my idea into works. thats where i need ur guys help

[splodger15]

First of all make sure your idea is basic and what bits do you need help on

[LilSwish722]

lol my idea is pretty basic at this point it time. its just a beginning program and i need help on the WHOLE thing. like what codes to use, how to use them, and what they do, and where to put them.

P.S. I'm not a noob to homebrew, just coding :-)
