Changeset 10046 for code/branches/ScriptableController

Timestamp:

Message:

Fixed some more things. What works now:

• Setting an ID for the scriptcontroller to be used from C++ in lua
• Running a script from the controllerdirector triggered by an event
• Getting an instance of a ScriptController object pointer from lua, and also calling a function of this object with parameters.

Next steps will be implementing different IDs per controller
object and actually swapping out controllers.
