Open Dev Kit Documentation :: Script Editor

Open Dev Kit uses a drag-and-drop graphical scripting system, which is a form of coding where pre-written pieces of code (or “Functions”) are used to build scripts in a visually orientated way, rather than typing lines of code. For those looking for some extra control however, it is possible to also construct scripts in Lua code.
