call_function can't return value

[cenullum]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I think call_function can't return values yet.

Describe the solution you'd like

if(lua.lua_function_exists("LuaFunctionName") ):
     var value = lua.call_function( "LuaFunctionName",[])
print(value)

function LuaFunctionName()
     return "Hello from lua"
end

This is correct, currently call_function will not return a value. Should be a easy fix.

Okay I think this is probably the best way to support it. It will always return a Variant now. If lua returns nothing the Variants value will be null. Checkout the dev branch https://github.com/Trey2k/lua/tree/dev

Something is wrong I created a project for you to see too "stats" value stay as 123 which is initial value Test.zip you can drag and drop the lua file and press f9 to increase test value, in lua it adds test to stats value

Silly bug haha, I forgot to pop the return value off the stack. So in a since it cached the initial value. Fixed it dev branch
