Client Scripting Function Reference

This API is shared between both C# and Lua runtimes. In case of Lua, we treat 'Nil' as 'null', but otherwise identical. C# scripts are defined as a class inheriting from SpaceScript. Lua scripts have a pre-prepared global named 'Space' containing an instance of the SScript class.

Classes

• Scripting/SScript (aka 'Space')
  • Scripting/SMath Math Functions
  • Scripting/SScene Scene Functions
    • Scripting/SGameObject Game Objects
    • Scripting/SAvatar Avatars/Players
