So I have been trying to learn lua for a while, but still I don't get it. Any suggestions on how to learn it. Other than Roblox's wiki.

Try learning something else first, like Python. Converting that knowledge into Lua isn't too hard.

Like for loops are:

# python
for x in range(10):
print(x)
# 0-9

--Lua
for x=1,10 do
print(x)
end
-->1-10

And function definitions are:

# py
def function_of_mine(x,y,z):
print(x,y,z)
function_of_mine(1,2,3)
# 1 2 3

--Lua
function function_of_mine(x,y,z)
print(x,y,z)
end
function_of_mine(1,2,3)
-->1 2 3

Even though Python is superior...Lua has some stuff going on! Right?

Thanks. So your saying Python would be easier to learn?
