Lua for MA3 Ep 8 - Conditional Loops

In this video we're going to be going over the two types of conditional loops and how to best use each to your advantage. After demonstrating the problem their existence solves, I'll thoroughly cover all the nuances to how they work and, of course, show you some fantastic examples you'll be able to copy and modify later too!

I'm using GrandMA3 OnPC version 2.1.1.5 and Lua 5.1 in this video.
