Phew, having an ocean between us makes me feel much safer

Harald,
Sorry about that...
I'm just getting frustrated with celx. Everytime I *think* I understand something, it turns out that I don't understand it at all.
Hell, it took me two days just to figure out how to make a print statement print the text where I wanted it. This is supposed to be better
Also, the documentation is my main stumbling block here I think. When I'm reading about a function or a call to a function, the example statements just don't seem to match what's being discussed. Either that, or I'm just too brain-dead to understand it. Quite possible, since I have never dealt with OOP before.
Oh well. I'm trying.
Take care, Bob

I would be glad to hear more about where your specific problems have been, maybe via mail. And even if it's not as easy as CEL-scripting, it shouldn't be that hard...Bob Hegwood wrote:Hell, it took me two days just to figure out how to make a print statement print the text where I wanted it.

Documentation is a weak point. The official documentation for the Lua language seems to be targeted at those who want to embed Lua, and my documentations is mostly a summary of Celestia-specific objects and methods.
