Debugger
 

Anyone know a good debugger to use to assist with making plugins? I have been using a python IDE but it doesn’t handle LUA correctly (didn't care about syntax highlighting and didn't want to use notepad), but it has no support for debugging, and although lotro does a decent job when things point to the wrong place it just gives the ambiguous "unable to load <plugin>" when there is a dumb mistake like missing a ")".

I use LUA edit. Works well, if there is a generic error when you try to load in game just hit the play button in lua edit and it will point you to the problem. When the error it gripes about is from your imports you know it should be good to go barring any specific errors from the Lotro implementation.

Sweet, I will give it a try, thank you so much.
