- Worth noticing
- The page says the Lua sandbox loads only base, math, table, and string libraries, with a 2,000 ms per-script execution timeout.
Field notes
The documented network request carries a Lua script name, input graph, and script parameters; the response contains graph nodes with x, y, and z coordinates plus edges. Native mode bypasses HTTP and calls the C# NativeBridge through P/Invoke. The page also documents a whitelist of Lua libraries and a per-script execution timeout, while noting that its comparison panes stay empty until the Engine returns graph data.
