Using the Lua event_hate_list

[irongut_av]

I thought I'd share this snippet of code to help anyone struggling with the hatelist and event_hate_list in lua

function event_hate_list(e)
  
    local hate_list = e.self:GetHateList().entries

  if(hate_list == nil) then
    e.self:Shout("hate_list is nil")
    return;
  else
    e.self:Shout("hate_list is OK")
  end
  
  for hate_entry in hate_list do
    local hate_entry_mob = hate_entry.ent -- C++ Lua_HateEntry::GetEnt is bound to 'ent' property
    local hate_value = hate_entry.hate
    e.self:Shout("Hate list includes " .. hate_entry_mob:GetCleanName() .. " who has a hate value of ".. hate_value )
  end

end

Also a question: how do I get the lua equivalent of Perl $hate_state?
