Re: Avatars: OBEY!

I made my avatar a while ago but didn't post till now. Kudos to whoever guesses who it is! He looks a bit like Kazuma from Cave Story/Doukutsu Monogatari... Actually he looks a lot like Kazuma but with different-colored hair. Actually he looks identical to Kazuma but with different-colored hair. :?

Re: __index, i really dont get it

Okay, here's the short version: __index is a special field used in a metatable. It defines a function which allows you to define what happens when you attempt to access an index of a table that doesn't exist.

Re: Protecting Source?

The essential problem is that once your code is in the hands of the end user, there's nothing you can do about it. The only way to guard against cheaters and the like is to sanity check everything that comes into the server - that's how most MMOs do it, for example. They can't control modifications ...
