tstl-simple-delete

TypeScriptToLua plugin that replaces calls to the TSTL delete function with a statement setting a value to nil.

This repo offers an alternate implementation to the simplifyDelete option in gb-tstl-utils.

❗ Use this and any code transformation plugin with caution. Mistakes are possible.

Example

__TS__Delete(x, y) becomes x[y] = nil
