Modules folder moved to data?

(1/2) > >>

vader0146:
When I need to install a module I have to spend ages going to garrysmod/addons/ulx/lua/ulx/modules/cl
Can it be moved to /data/ in the next release of ULX? It would make everything much easier.

Thanks for reading.

Megiddo:
No, sorry. For the following reasons:

1. That doesn't make sense
2. Lua scripts can't be loaded from there
3. How often do you install modules?

vader0146:
I install modules maybe a few times a day.

And Lua scripts CAN be loaded from data, as seen with the "FPtje virus".

JamminR:
Several hacks/exploits, yes, do take advantage of lua in /data
However, we're not going to rewrite ULib to use any of those hacks because of reason 1... Lua shouldn't be run from data; it doesn't make sense.
And back to reason #2... though we could, as soon as we did... Garry would block it again like he's blocked execution from so many other folders.
The path exists because of Garry's 'lua should only be run from /lua' program model

Megiddo:
Why don't you create a shortcut to the folder on your desktop?
