Lua to Glua

Ok so basically I was wondering how I can incorporate some of thing things I am learning all over again in lua, can be applied to Gmod.

 

General concepts and ideas related to programming/Lua (this'll really help you understand things as you move on to work with more specific things, like gLua). You also gain very valuable problem solving skills as regular Lua is - without a doubt - harder than gLua, which is actually makes it relatively easy on the devs.

Then there's also some useful functions you'll get to remember, along with other stuff. For example, pattern matching isn't any different when it comes to gLua (except you have more functions to do it with).

 

So what do you suggest I try making in Gmod firstly, none Clockwork specific.

 

Learn hooks and learn them really well, because you'll be using them absolutely everywhere.

 

Ate is right. Hooks are prevalent in GMod, and it is important to know how they work and what they do.

This was helpful to me as well, thank you.
