I built https://geolua.com . It's a geocaching like system that runs server-side Lua scripts in a VM that control user interfaces on in one or many browsers. I guess it's best explained if you just have a look at the we

While that would be great, I don't think it's going to happen. It smells like this is a feature limited to the relatively closed ecosystem of the non-Java version of Minecraft. Is it even possible to create heavily modded servers

As someone that also implemented A/B booting for the Pi: I wonder how you roll back fully automated? I read a bit of the code but wasn't able to find that. Or is that already handled by u-boot? In my case, the first thing I do onc

Almost enough to make a living so I can basically work on it full-time. I guess there's lots of unused potential if I find the right marketing partner. That's the goal for this year.

For simple dialogs that don't have to be saved (see the other discussions), this seems like an easy way to quickly put any format of dialog system together without reinventing your own DSL to encode those dialogs as state machine(s). Y
