Documentation

All code must be inside an Event, Function, or Procedure. Here's some basic examples:

```rs playerEvent(Join) { //supports comments too! default.sendMessage("Hello world!"); }

func FunnyFunction { // variables must be manually scoped - local, game, or save var game.joke = "Among us"; // defaults to local var list = ["a", "b", "c"]; // default.sendMessage(...) == print(...) default.sendMessage(joke); } ```
