Call main.lua script at each game loop iteration - is it good or bad design? How does it affect on the performance (relatively)? Maintain game state from a. C++ host-program or b. from Lua scripts or c. from both and synchronise them? (Previous question on the topic: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2674462/lua-and-c-separation-of-duties… >>> More
