What would it be?
I think I would say ope and close brackets, like this;
[function Turtle(yesh)
end]
Required open and close brackets.
And ; required at the end of lines. |

| Wat. Why required brackets and semicolons? I would add functionality to it's regex. |

1) The brackets idea is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. 2) You can already use semicolons as a line delimiter, but they aren't required. |

| Nice opinion, maybe you should spend time writing yours instead of telling me why mine are dumb :) |

| Why would having a required semicolon at the end of each line (being optional as of now) make any difference? |

| I would probably want tables and string indices to start at 0 |

Because if you have had previous experience from a language like java, C++ and C# those languages require a semicolon at the end! why? it lets the computer know that it may go on to the next line. Kind
So lua allows it for users that are use to it. Im sure there is another reason too |

@Render, Indeed, with -=, ++, and -- (maybe change comments to // like C) to round it out.
Also, switch statements built-in would be nice, even though you can hack one together with if-else. |

I like for loops set up like this better step = 0.2 for(int i = 0; i<25; i++) print(math.cos(step)*i))+100 end |

Optional ability to create final variables and variables that could only hold certain types(i.e.
final PI = 3.14 int x = 4--Also helps you remember what type your variables are in your code x = "hi">>Error: Cannot set type integer to type variable |

+= and ++? Aw yes.
Also a way to get the total number of indexes in a table. Kind of like the # operator except it counts _every_ index. |

President, please realize that you are not a decent programmer. Although the question, in itself, is good, the first thing you wish to change is asinine, and the second can already be optionally done. Not to mention that you frequently go to other threads acting like you know what you're talking about and only cause problems.
Not once in all of your rambling did you even come close to making any sensical statements; everyone who has, and will, read this thread is now dumber because of you. I wish you the best of luck, and may God have mercy on your soul. |

@Breach; Hahaha, I know that quote (though, it is slightly edited...and shortened).
Anyways, most of you (if not all of you) don't seem to realize that Roblox asserts very little control over Lua, and (unless I missed one) Roblox has only added methods to Roblox-Lua to make it more efficient. I don't really recall Roblox ever actually changing anything that Lua already has in place.
Now, if you want Lua to change, then why did you come and complain about it on Roblox? |

| We aren't complaining about it, the title even says it. The title says that we would have just done something differently, it doesn't state this is a complaint thread and there is nothing about complaints in the OP either. |

Complaint: a statement that a situation is unsatisfactory or unacceptable.
By saying that you would have done something differently, that would fall under stating that a situation is unsatisfactory or unacceptable. Thus, this whole thread (including my posts) are complaints. |
