Lua scripting is supported for several months now. It basically allows you to do more interactive plugins similar to fun.
The documentation contains both, some general information about Lua scripting as well a detailed description for all scripting libraries.
Lua Documentation 
It's not finished yet, but I'm working on
The current state should allow you to already get started.

Maybe. It's basically more complex json that has more advanced options and doesn't describe buildings. You can use it to make a toast (basically a text that pops up, but isn't like ingame notifications). I'm kind of getting mixed up with fun functionality, so you should talk to someone else.
Edit: This has hardly any info... so you should probably just skip this. But you could read it if you want to.

No, because for that a compiler would be needed; it would be overkill to do that for scripting functionality.
In addition, it would be much harder to prevent Java programs from doing malicious things.

Trust me Lua can do 99% of the stuff you want to do.
You could also make some malicious plugin by using l o o p s.

uhh, using all of the functions of Lua? then, yeah probably.
I know what tags and attributes are in html but not in Lua.

Why do some functions not show changes? i used the road condition, then built the road deco, so i use isRoadDeco, but it didn't get any changes. other cases, i put some numbers in x and y, but that didn't happen any actions.

isRoadDeco() will return a boolean (
true/
false) value. It won't change anything is the program it's more of a "checking function". Post the code here and I can give you some advice.

Yes, i have seen all values or return of function in doc website. Boolean, number, or string.
Code: Select all
function script:click(x,y)
if Tile.isRoadDeco == true and Tile.getTraffic >= 0.3 then
stuff
end
When i'm just use getTraffic condition, the script is work, but when i put the road deco, isn't work. What should i do when road deco in my road, then just use getTraffic, lua can't detection anything.

You need to provide it with x, y and level arguments
