mod_assets/scripts/init.lua contains this line:

Code: Select all

import "mod_assets/scripts/functions.lua"

I don't understand why the line is there.

I thought that init.lua and the files it imports could only contain definitions:
defineAnimationEvent
defineObject
etc.

And you also load mod_assets/scripts/functions.lua into a script entity called "functions" in dungeon.lua

Put another way, what would happen if you removed this line from mod_assets/scripts/init.lua ?

Code: Select all

import "mod_assets/scripts/functions.lua"

When you use an external script, you gotta import it

When you use an external script, you gotta import it

This isn't true at all. How would that even work? import just runs the file you give it and returns whatever that file's main function returned, it doesn't do anything else.

edit: in fact it looks like Grimrock's import doesn't even pass through the return value, it always returns nothing.

Well then
