That's completely besides the point. The developers aren't limited to _G. They can make changes beyond _G. The developers are capable of changing the basic structure and syntax of the language.

We are getting updates, but the updates are kind of breaking scripts, putting wingman8 in stress, but this is a sign of progress. We do not know if OGRE would effect Lua, so we will have to wait to find out what the result of their updating is. Maybe for all we know, OGRE is totally incompatible with Lua, and the dev's have to configure all the items on Roblox and redo some of the Lua to make it work properly. But it can be the opposite, OGRE is fully compatable, and they are just trying to see how we would react to fake updates. :|

"BeeBoppBop It does, it means he knows about lua's implementation in c++." -- Good for him. I know C, C#, C++, Lua, Python, Javascript, Flash, HTML, XML, and Perl.

You do know _G was something they could've fixed. Tofwap is wrong their. _G was a table and the variables in it were ran to every script... Kinda like this... loadstring("local dog="_G.dog.." "..script.Source)() That's a example that represents it somewhat.

Tofwap is not wrong. If Tofwap is wrong, AgenFirefox and MrNicNac are also wrong (From an old scripting suggestion. They said to do this, they'd have to contact the Lua devs to edit it).

BeepBoopBop You aren't listening, lua is a conection of code to c++. They can't edit the LUA type, but they can update it by making new connections to c++ or blocking them.

It wasn't broken, exploiters found a way to use the declared variables.

1. They probably haven't found a way yet. 2. They are more focused on place stealing exploit.

are you stupid? Yes they can. How do you think it was made in the first place. _G. is a roblox feature, you don't find it in every lua data.

shared is a roblox feature. How do you think it was made?! Also, you obviously don't know that lua is a link of coding to c++. They can build c++ classes that connect the language to c++ idiot.

Exactly, so they can make more updates for it! They can make tons of updates for scripting.
