LUA vs PERL

[sorvani]

Since the wikia is hosed, we have all the new Lua stuff on the built in github wiki.

I didn't add the functions for the new special attack stuff to Perl so it's limited to the old API atm. Someone could if they want I just didn't take the time to do it.

I'm logged into the wiki at this link. http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=HomePage

I've even been making small changes here and there.
If you can not log in for some reason then yes I agree there is a serious issue there but I would gladly take the time to input everything to the wiki.

Thanks for responding sorvani, is it safe to assume its borked for new accounts?

New accounts are borked yes. Additionally, when I attempt to log in, I a presented with a blank white screen. Not a login dialog. This is the result of clicking on your link, then on login.

Can the SpecialAbility stuff be used in perl? (guessing no)
Don't have time to test it right now.

Integer GetSpecialAbility(Integer ability);
Integer GetSpecialAbilityParam(Integer ability, Integer param);
Void SetSpecialAbility(Integer ability, Integer level);
Void SetSpecialAbilityParam(Integer ability, Integer param, Integer value);
Void ClearSpecialAbilities();
Void ProcessSpecialAbilities(String str);

as noted in changelog:

The old API functions that worked with letters still exist for backwards compatibility reasons but wont be updated further.
