Should I learn Lua?

Question

So, I am thinking of learning Lua because of Garry's Mod(a modding game). I want to make mods in Garry's Mod, but I'm not sure if it's easy or not worth it. If you think I should learn Lua, then where can I learn it like a book or website. Give me any tips on Lua.

Answer 1

If you want to Learn LUA,then it is a good option cause not only in garry's mod you can use this but in roblox and many more apps!
So my opinion is if you want to go with LUA then it is a good option!
and download this book for learning LUA.

Answer 2

Okay, thanks. And also how long does it take to learn the basics of Lua and then how long does it take to master Lua?

Answer 3

It depends on ur grasping and learning speed.
I took just 2 months to complete it.
And it is to learn so it might take you a month I guess.

Answer 4

Okay, and also does making mods take a lot of storage? Is there a specific amount of storage I need?

Answer 5

See I never did Games garry's mod but I did roblox games using it.
My game just took hardly a 50MB!
I guess it wont take much space!
The maximum size of the file will be under 10GB

Answer 6

Oh okay thanks! Do you know any IDE for Lua?
