Modding Help Can you make mods using lua yet?

Has i understood it wrong or is the lua api already documented? Everything i can find is lua tutorials which i already know.
Nothing about the starbound lua api itself. And if you want some kind of proof i guess i could share a snippet from the mini game i am working on.

Code:

Also if i was not clear enough this code under has nothing with starbound to do

function update_gamestate()
       for i, v in ipairs(boxes) do
         if v.name == "Play" and v.clicked then
            gamestate = "Playing"
         elseif gamestate == "Playing" and starship.health <= 0 then
            gamestate = "Game Over"
         elseif false then -- pressed "play again"
            starship.health = 100
           for y, x in ipars(starts) do
             for i, v in ipars(meteorites) do
               table.remove(meteorite, i)
               table.remove(stars, x)
                gamestate = "Playing"
             end
           end
           elseif false then -- wip false is beacuse its not yet implemented
            gamestate = "Menu"
               -- relevant stuff here \/
           elseif (gamestate == "Playing" or gamestate == "Paused") and love.keyboard.isDown("p") then
                 if gamestate == "Paused" then
                  gamestate = "Playing"
                         elseif gamestate ~= "Paused" then
                          gamestate = "Paused"
               end
             end
 end  end
not this might be horribly dirty and none clean but i just searched pastebin in my history so im not even sure if it works or how old it is :p

 

There's some API stuff exposed, but I'm not sure if I understand your question. I can't really see what you're trying to do with the code, as well as that it wouldn't run in the first place with all the syntax errors.

 

I just wanted to post a example that had nothing to do with starbound to prove that i kinda know what i am doing so people woudnt share a lua tutorial instead.

Also i mentioned that it is broken and non functional.

What i wondered is if the api is out yet and what is out of it is enough to actually do something (and working)

 

I see, I guess it really depends on what you're trying to do. There is some stuff exposed, I just googled this link which is a pretty good summary: http://community.playstarbound.com/index.php?threads/lua-scripting-possibilities-project-idea.58048/

You can also find all kinds of examples in the assets, as well as the script folder which has the exposed API functions/variables.

 

Ok thanks

 

Yes, it is very possible to make mods via Lua. Just check the Mods section! Theres tons of people, including myself, using extensive use of Lua already.
Im not gonna give you the rundown on Lua cuz its clear you know your fair share with Love2D.

This will help you extensively.
