[Request] loadstring() lua function

Would love to see the loadstring() lua function, would open up huge ways to execute dynamic.

You just have to use load(). It does the same exact thing.

local f = assert(load("return true"))
print(f())

Wow didn’t even know about that. thanks!

loadstring has been deprecated since Lua 5.2 and removed in Lua 5.3. Use load instead: https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#pdf-load
