I kinda got a bad taste from LUA when I was introduced to it via it being added in GMOD. It quickly led to me quitting the game because through it, you had remote control access possibilities just by running into the wrong player.
Like, I know that's not common but it took a while to actually learn it after that lol
That doesn't really seem like a lua issue
Can you expand on that?
I was running a tiny bit of garrsymod many years ago and didn’t know there were any RCEs. Unfortunately I can't find any news reports talking about it either at a quick glance?
When LUA scripting was first added to the game it had basically no guard rails and it was possible to write up LUA scripts that could download and execute files on your machine from within the game.
