Could you answer my questions about the LUA Script in Mafia II?




1.What are the differences between the standard LUA grammar and Mafia II LUA grammar?


 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />





This is the standard LUA grammar of function:



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />



 

Quotefunction
func_name (arguments-list)




statements-list




return





values




end

 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />





This is a Mafia II LUA command:



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />

ply=game.game:GetActivePlayer()




DelayBuffer:Insert(function
(l_1_0)




CommandBuffer:Insert(l_6_0,{




function
(l_1_0)return
ply:SetControlStyle(enums.ControlStyle.LOCKED)end
,




function
(l_2_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_in", false)end
,




function
(l_3_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_stat_a", false)end
,




function
(l_4_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_stat_b", false)end
,




function
(l_5_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_stat_c", false)end
,




function
(l_6_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_stat_d", false)end
,




function
(l_7_0)return
ply:AnimPlay("sc_man_smoke_out", false)end
,




function
(l_8_0)return
ply:SetControlStyle(enums.ControlStyle.FREE)end
})




end
,{l_1_0},500,1,false)

 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />





2.Where is the name of a function in Mafia II LUA command?




3.What do the l_1_0 , l_2_0 , l_6_0 , and etc. mean? Are they arguments? Or are they the names of functions?



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />



 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />





This is another LUA script of Mafia II:



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />



 

QuoteDelayBuffer:Insert(function
(l_1_0
) xxxxxx end
,{l_1_0
},10000,10,false)

 


 


 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />





4.What do the two l_1_0
mean?




5.And what is the usage of CommandBuffer:Remove() ?



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />



 



<hr class="bbcode_rule" />
Thank you!

From what it looks like to me it's calling the functions but I'm not a Expert at LUA 100% so
