Not certain how lua works but i have seen things like this when trying to build dynamic scripts and one of the parts fail or try to process an invalid character. (like a text with quotation marks)
In any case its probably something to do with a variable since it did not happen to a massive amount of people (or an intern).

That's awesome, I love looking at code!

lol looks like GM commands

Btw del I looked at that and that's some freaky stuff weird that it happened

What I want to know is why Raise and Teleport take into account the caster's gender.

WHAT ARE YOU UP TO SE?

Lua looks and acts like pretty much every other scripting language (javascript, perl, ruby, etc). What sets it apart is how bare bones but blazing fast it is. Lua runs closer to the speed of a compiled language (apparently) than a scripting language. On the other hand, it's built-in functionality is pretty fundamental. It does support Closures and first order functions though, so you can do psudo-OOP with it; build whatever objects and functionality you need.

This is probably so the text looks right, I can't remember exactly what it says and I can't look it up right now, but for instance: "Hulan Temet would like to teleport you to Camp Bearded Rock, would you like to accept his teleport?" Since the text needs to know what sex to label the sender as, there needs to be a value for it.

Sounds nice, i should read up a bit on it.

Hello!

Thank you for the report, that does seem rather strange. I'll forwarded it on to be looked at further. :)
