Learning LUA
« on: August 25, 2009, 11:17:08 AM »
Hi!
I would really love to learn LUA <--(for games, such as gmod)--> so for two days I've been browsing the internet for some info, tutorials and general stuffs... And all i could find was the garrysmod wiki but that seemed to be outdated since the concommand.Add doesnt seem to work for me, i dont know if that is an old syntax or something.

So if you know any good sources on how to learn LUA Please post it :D

You learn from the GM wiki. It's just lua with an API added on top, so there's nothing really to learn...

BTW, concommand.Add should work in it's current GM wiki display.
