The extend of LUA?

Okay, for those of us who haven't kept track of this forum much and want to use LUA in our mods: What can LUA interact with and how much of it is already implemented in the released version? Can we get a development version that has all of that support in it so we can use it for implementing mods?
I know we can have scripts interact with units, act globally and act as the Gaia but can we e.g. script projectile or explosion behaviour through any of these?

This has automatic builds of the latest SVN version, not sure how well they work.
I'm not entirely sure but I don't think you can change behaviour of the physics system right now;
I think that this list has all the Lua modrules functions you can use at the moment.

Which version of LUA do you need?

The dev exes tombom pointed to should work fine.

So I can't change the damage a shot does through scripting?

Not with LUA... but you may want to talk to Yeha about his latest HitByWeapon changes

The synced lua scripting changes have not been committed yet
tombom: nope, that's only a listing from one of 4 main libraries, and
then there are custom functions for the different types of scripts...
