Create wonderous gamemodes for Valheim with Lua

luaxe's Issues

Expose Classes in Valheim dll to Lua State

NLua lets us register functions and entire classes. Expose those functions to the Lua state.

Ideally we have a script that can do it automatically so that when the game updates we don't have a lot of work to do

Client <-> Server Communication 'Network' class

We need to build up a Network class to abstract the client-server communication in Valheim
example/research of client-server communication:

Sandbox the Lua state

Server-side BepInEx Set-up

Installing bepinex server-side: https://youtu.be/gOGYQRHpp2c

We also need to figure out how to separate the client and server code both organizationally in the codebase and with the built Luaxe.dll.

We could do separate projects in the solution for client and server.
Then i would think we would have more control over the build process for each project

Hot Reloading

VS Code Lua Autofill for Valheim-exposed functions

Ideally we have a script that can generate it

Hook into Valheim Database To Allow Querying, Adding New Tables, etc

Need a Database class or something as an abstraction layer

Asynchronous Lua (coroutine wrapper)

Native lua coroutines will be available already. We're thinking a light coroutine wrapper such as https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/1678104
