Official Lua support

Development Programming & Scripting

Is there any plan to add official Lua support to Unreal Engine?
I’ve seen community projects come and go but none is working or actually maintained.

Thanks asmith88. I just had hopes that there was some LUA integration already available. Adding lUA itself isn’t a problem but binding all the different classes and methods is going to be a long and tedious work

I’m quite certain that ue4 does not support lua and I also did find a LuaIntegration.h file in Engine/Plugins/ScriptPlugin/Source/ScriptPlugin, but I think this is just an example plug-in.

Here’s a good tutorial for lua integration.
You can get the lua binaries from here.
Lua isn’t hard to integrate yourself, but you will need intermediate knowledge of c++ to do it.

You can use this plugin for lua development GitHub - Tencent/sluaunreal: lua dev plugin for unreal engine 4
