Put simply, you have a number of ways and options to create visuals: It's especially valuable if your skin is different than the other existing skins.Īlso it makes sense to play around with existing skins a bit to understand how the system works. It helps if you have a strong idea of what you want to create.

For example:ĬonceptThe best way to start with a skin is to come up with a good concept. The length/count of table can be found out by prefacing the table with a # sign. You might also see block comments that start with '-]'. Any code after two dashes is ignored by the game. If you're familiar with coding, there are some particulars to LUA that are good to know: However there's the option to use an Update function which continuosly changes the track, even as it runs. In most cases once the track is loaded the LUA file is no longer accessed. During that time the track is built using the LUA file. If you're new to coding, we recommend that you start with an existing skin and edit it to find out how the different things work.Īs a note: The script itself is executed while the track is being loaded. If you want to get started on that, read on as the majority of this documentation explains the many features of the LUA script.

We recommend the free NotePad++ for this.Īlso be aware that editing the LUA script is advanced and requires some coding skills.

Editing ScriptsTo get started editing the script you should first get a good text editor first.
