An MD action can write to a named variable or change the world. This is not a Lua return value. The output variable depends on the action and its attributes.

Example and context#

See language basics, types and methods and Lua / MD events. Examples there are independent learning examples. No project source files or private implementation fragments are distributed with this reference.
