It's not like you don't already have your hands full
but it might be worth looking into sometime. (I feel so guilty making these posts.)Statistics: Posted by StevenP — 15 Apr 2015, 16:18

C# has been my primary language for many years now. I remember the old days when I jumped around from different languages (VB, C\C++, VBScript, Assembly, etc.) Now I pretty much just use TSQL, C# and Javascript (not including libraries or frameworks like AngularJS, JQuery, Silverlight, etc.)
I remember the days when I moved from C to VB 4 (the version at the time) and I hated it compared to C. I felt it took my power away but then I started to learn it can be a nice lazy language.
The last time I used C++ was using MFC and creating ActiveX controls. 
Man I'll be rusty by the time the C++ SDK comes out.

We chose lua over JavaScript because its an industry standard and very friendly language to program in. It does have its downsides, such as tables( i personally don't like them to much ). But once you get your head around the language, its not bad for scripting and is quick to make things happen. Plus they already have a huge base library of commands.
Adding another scripting language at this point would not be beneficial as we will have to create a full API from the get go, which will take a lot of time away from other required tasks.
Maybe's we can look at adding JavaScript in the further future after all the major tasks have been taken care of.
Good ideas though.

"Duktape is an embeddable Javascript engine, with a focus on portability and compact footprint.
Duktape is easy to integrate into a C/C++ project: add duktape.c and duktape.h to your build, and use the Duktape API to call Ecmascript functions from C code and vice versa."
