Start with RBLX lua then go into different games with lua (GMOD)
RBLX is a pretty "dumbed down" so to speak version of lua, and after youve really got RBLX lua down( I mean like really have it down) move to Gmod lua, its a big step up, and you can just go from there. |

Honestly, Python is a lot more supported than Lua, and it's known to be easy, same thing for Lua, so my choice would be Python.

For portability, use Python (it's on pretty much most machines at this point). If you want to do stuff quickly, use Lua.
Lua and Python can be used to do the same things, and for anything that can't be done in Lua by default, you can use a little bit of C glue and make it be able to.
-changed things...

@digpoe
For portability I would much rather use Lua than Python. Lua is very fast, very portable and also extremely lightweight. It's also the leading scripting language in games.
Details here: https://www.lua.org/about.html |

"RBLX is a pretty "dumbed down" so to speak version of lua, and after youve really got RBLX lua down( I mean like really have it down) move to Gmod lua, its a big step up, and you can just go from there." Uh, how is it dumbed down? They just removed a couple of functions for security's sake.
"For portability, use Python (it's on pretty much most machines at this point). If you want to do stuff quickly, use Lua." What are you, dumb? I can assure you Lua is far more portable than Python |
