MSW Scripting (.mlua) — Framework + File Workflow + Playtest & Debugging

mlua is Lua-based, but it has MSW-specific annotations, a lifecycle, and an execution-space model. General Lua knowledge alone will not produce working code. All work is done by editing files in the workspace directly, and code is validated in the order build logs → runtime logs.

1. Core Principles (must follow)

1.1 Existing Script First

Before creating a new .mlua, glob/keyword-search under ./RootDesk/MyDesk/ for an existing script with the same purpose — extending an existing file is always the first choice. Duplicate implementations raise maintenance cost and conflict risk.

1.2 Folder Structure for New Scripts — Never Dump Files Flat

When a new .mlua is unavoidable, place it under a feature/category subfolder. Required path shape: ./RootDesk/MyDesk/<FeatureFolder>/<ScriptName>.mlua.
