It depends on how you intend to use it.

Use: import "mod_assets/script/my_script.lua"
...in any of the startup scripts, to insert the contents of a file into that script when it's loaded.

There is a hoop to hop through for getting script_entity sources to load during the game.

You must first add a ScriptController component, and name it 'controller'; it must precede the script component in the definition. You must load the source for the Script component inside the ScriptController's onInit function.

If so, why—exactly/specifically?

You can define (at the top of every script) a shorter name for the script component—like "ut" for instance.

Code: Select all

ut = script_entity_name.script
