Global Lua variable with newline

[DarkIllidan]

In Jass set udg_newline = "\n" is for a newline. udg_ is for global in Jass? I need a newline String in Lua that is Global but I don't know how global variable are made in Lua. Could someone help me out?

How could someone edit a Variable made in Trigger with Lua?

This is in Jass

If you want to reference a GUI variable in Jass/Lua you need the "udg_" prefix, otherwise it's unnecessary.

To create a new Lua variable in GUI you would do this:

• Custom script: newline = "\n"

Note how Lua doesn't use call or set.

If you want it to be a local variable simply add local before it's name.

• Custom script: local newline = "\n"

Some other differences between Jass and Lua:
Null becomes Nil, FourCC() must be called when referencing rawcodes, endif becomes end, ' ' becomes " ", and many more.

In Lua mode you don't write call/set infront.
