| We can edit existing variables clicking on game menu->configure->variables or tapping Shift+Ctrl+7. We can add, edit, remove and search there etc.
What about (LUA) arrays?
It would be so wonderful add/show/edit/search/fill up with data arrays the same way!
Isn't?
Just my 2 cents... | | Top |

| Yes, well Lua arrays can be arrays of arrays, or arrays of functions. These would be hard or impossible to represent inside the GUI. Also they can be self-referential, which would also be a big problem to display.
eg.
t = {} -- make a table
t [1] = t -- table contains itself
I usually use the "tprint" function to display arrays, as that shows nested tables, and is quite easy to read. |

| | On the other hand, it would be quite nice to be able to edit MUSH arrays from the GUI. |
