Does LUA turn you off? I think that's the Achilles' Heel of FF mapping. :/

No, it didnt bug me much once I figured out the basics. I think LUA is a great idea because you can do alot with it but Im sure it probably bugs some mappers quite abit

I just got into mapping last night, and one of the things I'm worried about is having to learn LUA for FF maps. I've never used a programming language before.

From what I've read from map developers, I do agree with what you've said about LUA. I imagine it was a pain in the ass to recreate the CTF gamemode every time you made a CTF map. LUA manages to make things much easier for the dev, allowing him to use a universal base CTF script and slightly modify it for his needs.

I like lua it's really not that bad if you have some coding background and even if you don't you just need to apply the examples that are in the base_blah.lua's and you can pretty much do whatever you want.

As much as lua puzzles me it seems very easy for a few guys on here - lots of crazy stuff goign on in the Lua forum.

Dont let lack of coding knowledge or fear of lua stop you from mapping, if you produce the goods I'm sure someone will step up and help you out with the lua side of things.

...yeah i figured this would get some heat at some point.

I designed the rock2 yard for TF2 and honestly I was shown the media screens here after I had already made my big old towers. No doubt they influenced the further direction of the yard but I remember thinking "WTF?!"

haha. anyways good luck and heres to your continued success.

don't take the flak as a bad thing...most of the FF guys forget this is public and that TF2 players do sometimes stop in here so they just say what comes to their head!

I sure wish you were mapping for FF, but your TF2 rendition looks really cool!
