Is there a line continuation symbol that could be used if a coded line is LLLLLOOOONNNNNGGGG? MS had "_" at one time for Access and Excel

For strings, just close the quote and .. at the end like this:

Keep in mind with DB's example, it will consider a line break and actual line break. So his example will print as 3 entirely separate sentences.

So a line like this:

if tonumber(battlescreen1) == 0 and tonumber(battlescreen2) == 0 and tonumber(battlescreen3) == 255 then

could look like:

"if tonumber(battlescreen1) == 0 and " ..
"tonumber(battlescreen2) == 0 and " ..
"tonumber(battlescreen3) == 0 and " ..
"tonumber(battlescreen4) == 255 then"

If that's your actual script, no. Since that's Lua code you don't want to make it a string unless you plan on executing the string later on. If you want to break it into separate lines, just put each check on its own line, Lua will process it properly still.

Yes that is the exact code, thanks
