Is it possible to have a global script that will run without you having to create an object with the script attached? |

If you attach it to a scene, then yes. Alternately, you can call dofile with some kind of thing. But that still requires you to have some kind of object. General purpose scripts across all scenes are a no-go, unfortunately. |

Thanks for the quick reply. Quote: General purpose scripts across all scenes are a no-go, unfortunately. Hmm, that stinks, oh well. Perhaps I can make the object and name it as global and check for it. |

Maybe threads would work. |

We're in a thread right now. ... okay, joking aside, a thread is basically a processing idea. Your computer has processes, which are the different programs and services that are running. Inside a program, there can be multiple threads, which is basically one program running two different bunches of code at the same time. It's a parallel processing thing. HOW this would help us here I have no clue. |

Lua has threads. Well. Kinda. |

Lua has an unofficial which allows for process threading. However, it involves recompiling the entire Lua engine. Whether you can achieve this or not by simply overwriting the DLLs that come with CC, I'm not too sure. |
