Hello, my name is Lolegic and I am currently working on a new version of Lua, which I've decided to number as Lua 5.5. Unlike other version changes, Lua 5.5 will introduce significant and substantial changes, including a complete rewrite of the language and modifications to the syntax. However, I'm also looking for feedback and suggestions from you (not you specifically ofc) on potential improvements to Lua. For example, do you think adding proper types or type checking would be a good addition? Should a tables starting index change from 1 to 0? Please let me know your thoughts and suggestions (maybe some tips on how I could get a girlfriend :sob: - joke).

Btw, if you want something to be removed from Lua lemme know.

I will most likely only respond in LogiSec, (dms are closed due to mass dming from servers ._., but you can friend me on discord)

@reversed_coffee I'm gonna start working on Syntax designs first (Basically I'm just planning out how I want things to look). They'll all be put on github, and I was wondering when I'm finished if you could look at them and lemme know what you think?

@reversed_coffee Lua 5.5 will also be low-level. Meaning you can use win32 api. Yes I know ima have to write a lot of wrappers, but meh worth it.

I think you should add KeyDown(KEYCODE HERE) and KeyUp(KEY CODE HERE)

or is there any other way to make keydown? cuz I'm trying to make auto key press for a long time, but can't :(
