I have not a single clue from LUA except some basics.

You have to define "know" here. There are a lot of programmers playing zk and it would take an hour tops for any programmer to get to my level of "knowing" Lua. Knowing Chili, various peculiarities and good practices of spring may be a better metric.

This. Learning lua-specific syntax is not the problem. The problem is getting into the structure of the engine with respect to definitions/globals/constants, data structures and callins (and, of course, whatever quirks there may be). And as we discussed before, lua doesn't exactly help with this. Is there an API description somewhere? Or does boil down to "just search widgets/gadgets that do similar things and adapt the code"?

You can add me to the list, I know it pratty well, also the engine internals related to it. As for API, I can't imagine deving any serious lua for Spring without having a browser with several subpages of http://springrts.com/wiki/Lua_Scripting opened.

One day i was going on a trip and i stumbled into some weird-shaped hole. So i went a couple paces into the darkness, and there i found a weird plaque decorated with ancient arcane runes of mystery, worn away by time and scratched by forces unknown. They read like this: O͎̺̖̱͡M̤̫̪̠̤̹̜͟P̛_̻̳T̪͍͠HR͟E̯ͅA̢D̨͇̲̻̮̹̠̩_͍LI̦̫͓̤̙͔M̳̪͎I͕T̛͉̯̙ Upon reading them, i decided to leave the strange place alone. But ever since that fateful day, i've had no problems with running 91.0.

for the sake of the list, linked @names would be appreciated, this lets me see hwo alive they are. What are the names of "abma" "jk" "quant" "Poland"?

that would be @[ag]abma @[lcc]jk @[lcc]quantum[0k] @rafal[zk]

@[ag]abma and @[lcc]jk are Spring engine devs, they very rarely play ZK and usually only for engine bugtesting. @[lcc]jk is probably the most competent in Spring-Lua-stuff person here. He also made the Chili UI framework. @[lcc]quantum[0k] is one of the original devs of Complete Annihilation (ZK predecessor), but unfortunately he is inactive these days.

I know Lua and play. But if you want me to use that for anything you're going to have to come to my house and watch my kids.
