How do I edit the scripts exactly? I can never usually see any .lua scripts UNTIL I compile my game therefore is there an option menu of some sort I am missing within the Game Guru software?

There is no built-in editor for scripts. You simply need to open and edit scripts in an external application such as notepad or notepad++. The scripts can be found in the files\scriptbank folder.

Ok but the scriptbank folder is in program files, therefore does that edit it for ever new game that I create with GameGuru?

Unfortunately, yes. Game Guru has no way of separating out game projects. I've had to copy installs and rename them to have separate projects with different custom scripts. But if you just have newly created scripts for each project then it shouldn't be a problem. It's only a problem if you're modifying default scripts and don't want the same behavior across multiple games.

Ok, how about I compile the game and change the .lua files this way, that would also work right?
