Information About ALE (AscEmu LuaEngine)

Lua is a powerful, fast, lightweight, embeddable scripting language.
Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics.
Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode for a register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping.

Because Lua can easily be embedded into applications, it is frequently used in games, such as World of Warcraft, Far Cry, Baldur’s Gate, Garry’s Mod and Warhammer titles.
