[Lua] Hello World - o3de/o3de GitHub Wiki

Simple Print

As per tradition, here is a simple Lua component that prints "Hello, world!" to the console when it activates.

local HelloWorld = {}

function HelloWorld:OnActivate()
  Debug.Log("Hello, world!")
end

function HelloWorld:OnDeactivate()
end

return HelloWorld

Color Print

A neat tip you can use with Debug.Log is you can prepend "$[0-9]" to print to the console in various colors.

local HelloWorld = {}

function HelloWorld:OnActivate()
  for i = 0, 9 do
    Debug.Log("$" .. i .. "Hello, world! " .. i)
  end
end

function HelloWorld:OnDeactivate()
end

return HelloWorld
