RE: Game Integration

[Chris Brodie <Chris.Brodie@...>]

I've looked around and can't find much information on coroutines besides the light doco in man.

>From what I can gather:

In my game:

------------
lua_State* Thread = lua_newthread(m_LuaState);
int ReturnCode=lua_dobuffer(Thread, File, File.GetSize(), a_Name); 
//Execution return immediatly
------------

My mission script can sit in a loop: (Excuse bad use of Lua Syntax and obvious errors, I've only been looking at the language for a few hours and the really lame use of Lua for a one sided CTF script)

------------
FlagID = GetFlagID("DefaultFlag.Model");
CaptureZoneID = GetCaptureZoneID(10,10,10,0,0,0); --Size, Position
while Collision(FlagID, CaptureZoneID)==false do
	Sleep(100) --Milliseconds
End
DisplayScoreBoard()
------------

Do I need to use the lua language constructs in something like this?

Many Thanks,

Chris
