Update Toolkit for scenario authors LuaCreator

[RudolfJan]

Hi All,

At my download site https://www.hollandhiking.nl/trainsimulator/index.php you can download now LuaCreator v0.6beta

LuaCreator is a toolkit for scenario authors. The new version has two new features:

- You now can create a .exe installer for your scenario.
- You can automatically generate documentation for your scenario.

Next to these new features some bugs have been fixed (it is still beta!!!)

Existing feature highlights:

- List routes and scenarios, including when packed in .ap files
- Create Lua based message boxes without programming Lua
- Create and debug Lua scripts easier
- Replace rolling stock in existing scenarios
- Move scenario markers

Most features will make a copy of your scenario, so using LuaCreator is very safe.

Looking forward to the next version:
Not much new functions, but a redesigned user iterface and a lot of code revision behind the scenes.

Thanks mate...

Now that I unexpectedly have a lot more free time on my hands, I am looking forward to being able to devote some of it to re-skinning and scenero creating.

I'm sorry, but I have downloaded from the link and run the setup file, allowing installation into the suggested location (Railworks/LuaCreator), and when I try to run it I immediately get the error message "LuaCreator has stopped working"

Same result whether I use the shortcut icon or click directly on the LuaCreator.exe file in the LuaCreator folder. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

Have others had this problem?

There is a problem locating the Steam directory, which caused the program to crash. I solved it in version 0.61 which is available now.
