Code:

debug_setBreakpointForThread(threadid, address, size OPTIONAL, trigger OPTIONAL, breakpointmethod OPTIONAL, functiontocall() OPTIONAL) : sets a breakpoint of a specific size at the given address for the specified thread. if trigger is bptExecute then size is ignored. If trigger is ignored then it will be of type bptExecute, which obviously also ignores the size then as well. (Other triggers are bptAccess and bptWrite)
debug_setBreakpoint(address, size OPTIONAL, trigger OPTIONAL, breakpointmethod OPTIONAL, functiontocall() OPTIONAL)
debug_setBreakpoint(address, size OPTIONAL, trigger OPTIONAL, functiontocall() OPTIONAL)
debug_setBreakpoint(address, functiontocall() OPTIONAL)

None of these lua functions have conditional breakpoints set?

The return value of the lua function is the condition

return 1 if you wish to break, and nil if not

Code:

debug_setBreakpoint(0x100045D7D, function()
if not condition then return nil end --nil is not handled
return 1 --make it break
end)
