===Using Lua inside of Linux Modules===
If you want to make use of Lua functions as exported by the MTA Server you have to link against the official deathmatch.so file. Then the export resolution during dlopen of your module will respect the symbol table of deathmatch.so which contains all of the Lua exports. '''Do NOT link against a static version of a freshly-compiled Lua library because that will create code conflicts and potentially crashes in the long run.'''

Modules are extensions for Multi Theft Auto's Lua core, allowing the integration and use of custom Lua functions that have been written in C++, and compiled as a DLL or SO file. Modules are commonly used to create functions for such purposes that Multi Theft Auto lacks, such as sockets. All modules listed here are not distributed with Multi Theft Auto, and must be manually installed.
