Is it possible to have more than one function Create/Update/Destroy(self)?

I need to know for something I'm making.

Probably not, but it's pointless to have copies of the same function in one script.

Not really. There's also absolutely no reason to ever need to.

If you want to differentiate between, say, two actors running the same script, just add a self.PresetName == check.

Or, if you just need to do a specific piece of code, make an external function and reference it inside your Create/Update/Destroy.

Actually I needed to know cause I was making a batch file to easily make .lua's, and the way I have it set up right now each time I add something new it adds a completely new function Create/Update/Destroy(self). Well, I guess that makes this batch useless now.

The entire point of lua is to be able to customize anything you want in the game. Why would you limit yourself/others using a batch file/premade program?

It was actually sort of an experiment, to see if it was possible. I had the batch file coded correctly so I had successfully made a Lua generator for Cortex Command, but as you said, it was limiting. I don't really have a use for it. That's why I came here to see if it is even possible to use these Lua's at all, considering the way the batch makes them.
