About LUA

Is it me, or is LUA like a chopped down version of C++?
I am the UI Master...there is no charge for my awesomeness.

The language was designed to work with C/C++, exactly how we're using it. I know EverQuest II actually uses LUA as their scripting engine and I've also read that the Grand Theft Auto games do too (I'm sure there are many others :P). LUA is also written in C so I'd say your observations are on point!
