<cat>Dev.GettingStarted</cat>
Garry's Mod features a set of non-default operators and aliases of already existing ones.
The implemented operators include
Operator |
-----------|
| `continue` |
<warning>`continue` may work incorrectly, consider using `goto`</warning>
<example>
<description>Use `goto` for the same functionality as `continue`, this example loops through all the players and kills all superadmins then respawns them.</description>
<code>
for k, v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
if not v:IsSuperAdmin() then
goto continue -- skips any iterations where the player is not superadmin
goto cont-- skips any iterations where the player is not superadmin
end
v:Kill()
v:Spawn()
::continue::⤶
::cont::⤶
end
</code>
</example>
The implemented aliases are as following
Operator | Alias |
----------|------- |
| `and` | `&&` |
| `or` | `||` |
| `not` | `!` |
| `~=` | `!=` |
| `--[[ ]]` | `/* */` |
| `--` | `//` |
<warning>
It is suggested to avoid using the custom operators if you wish to use your scripts outside of Garry's Mod, as they are incompatible with standard Lua.
