Notes

• Have a Lua VM per datapack

  • That means all scripts in a datapack share the same global state

• on reload all vm state is lost

• scripts are run from the /lua command

• script runs are blocking, and will be terminated if they don't complete in a certain time

• callbacks are registered in global scope, and called back from LuaCraft, this way the script can complete after callback registration, and the callback chunk can be run later

  • maybe we should preserve the VM state if there are outstanding callbacks, so that the callback can be run with the given enclosing state
