1. `Events` global is replaced with `require('devilutionx.events')`.
2. Table is simplified and documented.
3. `On` removed from the event names as it was a bit redundant.
4. Functions are camelCase for consistency (e.g. `add` instead of
`Add`).
Example script:
```lua
local events = require("devilutionx.events")
local render = require("devilutionx.render")
local message = require("devilutionx.message")
local function greet()
message("Hello from " .. _VERSION)
print("Hello from ", _VERSION)
end
events.GameStart.add(greet)
local function drawGreet()
render.string("Hello from " .. _VERSION, 10, 40)
end
events.GameDrawComplete.add(drawGreet)
```
Implements a `require` function that supports built-in modules like so:
```lua
local log = require('devilutionx.log')
```
It falls back to reading from assets, so this loads `lua/user.lua`:
```lua
local user = require('lua.user')
```
The bytecode for the asset scripts is cached, in case we want to later
support multiple isolated environments.
There may be a simpler or better way to do this.
It's good enough for now until someone more knowledgeable
about Lua comes along.
Enabled only in Debug mode.
Runs Lua similar to the `lua` CLI.
Supports multiline input with Shift+Enter.
Missing features:
1. Scrollback.
2. Input history on up/down.
Open with backtick, close with Esc.
```lua
local render = devilutionx.render
local function drawGreet ()
render.string("Hello from " .. _VERSION, 10, 40)
end
Events.OnGameDrawComplete.Add(drawGreet)
```
