My question is how to get the lua_state from a {$ccode}, and thus be able to call Lua functions.

I know how to create functions using {$ccode}, call them using lua or assembly, but was wondering how to call Lua functions from C or asm code.

By creating a plugin I could easily add this feature, but I want to know if there is already a native way.

Do you mean the lua_state that the game uses or the lua_state that CE uses internally as used in {$luacode} blocks ?

In case of the game's lua: hook any lua function, but I recommend lua_gettop, and then use that to call the functions (keep in mind thaty diufferent threads may have different lua_states, and sometimes the game may just destroy the lua state after just one call...)

in case of CE's lua functions:
make sure luaclient is injected into the target and the luaserver in CE is running (look at the call lua function aa template)
and then you can call CELUA_ExecuteFunctionByReference(functionrefid, parametercount, paramlist, async)

you can also call CELUA_ExecuteFunction("stringwithluascript", optionalparameter) but this will parse the script each time, so is slower

I had never noticed that there was an AA template on it.
Thank you for your help.
