Hi，
I want to add LUA script support in my IDE, but it's more difficult in version 2.1.x than in 2.0.1. Do you have any good suggestions?

Hi, currently LUA support in 2.1.x is broken. We would be happy for any support we could get here to get it fixed.

Currently, 4diac supports converting ST language to LUA to achieve dynamic function block effects. It is also possible to directly write LUA scripts to implement dynamic function blocks. However, I am currently trying to do this, but I am not very familiar with this framework, so it is slower to write.

4diac converts ST code to LUA scripts, and based on the converted XML, it appears that there is some room for optimization of the LUA script, as it may appear a bit bulky.、

No the idea is not to write FBs in LUA script. The only idea is to generate LUA script from FBs.

If we get it working again I'm happy to also get it optimized.
