  [2.18] Lua errors in triggers?   | 
			 
			
				Is there something speical I have to enable in lua scripted triggers to display errors? Doing something like calling a function that doesn't exist does not seem to raise a lua error, the script simply terminates silently, the debugger says nothing about it.
 
 
Lua errors are generated just fine for ones entered on the command line though. |

				I get errors raised fine from triggers - I created a trigger with the script invalid ( " = and an error was raised just fine. Similarly, attempts to call non-existant functions give the normal "attempt to call global xxx (a nil value)".
 
 
Perhaps you've defined the function somewhere? |

Nope, I've had the script silently fail for parse errors and such too, I ended up adding zs.debug() calls at the end of my trigger code to make it easier to identify if it failed or not.
 
 
Hmm; that gives me an idea, I'm working on a converted zMud session, I'll start one from scratch and see if it still occurs. |
