[Bf-gamedev] Lua

[Jacob Merrill]

I'm no expert, but if the swig system has no drawbacks other than more code,

since it has python handles anyway, would that not be like cutting out
clutter and adding in a universal adapter?

if it supports lua and python and X,
why not cut out the python handles and use the swig handles for python?

What would be the disadvantage?
Build stability?
