The idea is, in which way can I do this nice in Lua and IMHO Andrew Starks has got a greate ideaI think what you are really talking about is a state machine, which is often handled by a switch statement. Since Lua lacks these, you end up resorting to a bunch of "if" statements doing one-by-one checks of your program counter, as you note.Hello,I would like to use a list structure for calling Lua function. So some explanation.I have got a function e.g. function test({…}) do first call do some print do second call do some print again if (a) do A else do B end …. endI have got also a "program counter" which is started by 1. On 1 its should run "do first call" on 2 "do some print" and so on. I would like to use a Lua function, but I would like to run this function step-by-step. I can use a if construct to check the current"program counter value" and run the correct command, but this is not very nice. Did you have an idea for this problem? Thanks Phil
You're greate Phil
