I’m trying to make an Animal Crossing type Roblox game but idk how to code (Roblox code is Lua code. Username on Roblox is WigglesWantsCheese)

I’ve been dreaming of a game like animal crossing for months now but I don’t know how to code. I’m also rlly broke so if you want to do it 4 free. Or we can split the profit from the game. Think of me as…. The animator and the music guy. But idk how to import the animations to the proper sequences

Is there any discord server for sharing lua code?

I know about the Libera channel and the mailing thing, but I don't really like the format of those.

I considered just posting exercise solutions and etc here, but the sub doesn't have that many posts, so it would become quite spamy.

TLDR: where should I share my code to know if I am doing best practice/just to talk about it?

I’m creating another poll because everyone would rather die then help me make a game in Roblox (Roblox is lua) it’s an animal crossing type game. We can split the profit. Username on Roblox is MrWIggles555555

I need a pro noscripter,
Someone to import the animations I make into inputs,
Someone to make a thumbnail
I got the other stuff like camera and music

rtc 2.1.0 : compile Lua noscripts to standalone Windows executables

https://preview.redd.it/lu0iai057ipf1.png?width=256&format=png&auto=webp&s=277221cf25fbfa7ee277aeb508e80d50931588a1

Hey Lua devs 👋


I'm thrilled to announce the latest version of **rtc**, a standalone tool that compiles your Lua 5.4.8 noscripts into native Windows `.exe` applications—no Makefile, no C compiler, and **no Lua installation** required.

But here’s the real game-changer: **rtc supports full static compilation**, meaning you can embed **Lua binary modules directly into your executable**—and they’ll load seamlessly via `require()` just like regular Lua files. This opens the door to packaging powerful native extensions without worrying about external dependencies.

Static Lua binary modules need just to be recompiled with the `lua54-static.lib` library from LuaRT distribution (rtc is coded using LuaRT).

Here are the main features :

* Standalone tool – No Makefile or external compiler needed
* Command line or GUI frontend
* Build Windows desktop or console apps
* Static or dynamic executables
* Embed any files – Lua modules, assets, configs
* Access embedded files directly from Lua
* Easy deployment – No Lua installation required

More info and downloads are available on the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/samyeyo/rtc)

A tutorial is available [here ](https://www.luart.org/doc/tutorial/rtc.html)

PDFGenerator for redbean.dev and luaonbeans.org

Hi there,

I'm working on a PDF generator in pure LUA
https://github.com/solisoft/luaonbeans/blob/main/.lua/pdfgenerator.lua

It's a part of my luaonbeans.org project

It's easily adaptable for openresty !

On a 50€/mo Hetzner VM it can handle 1700 pdf/seconds (two pages with logo and tables -- invoice template)

Quick question about indexing temporary tables

print({[0\] = "a"}[0\])

Doesn't work but if I save the table to a variable before indexing it works?

I kinda like using temporary tables as lookups
