Is there a way to re-order functions in the main.lua file?
I have tried pre-declaring them, but can't get it to work.

so if I have this function, I want the function it calls, i.e. funcB to be perhaps later in the file, not necessarily before funcA. Hope this is clear.

local function funcA()
local z = funcB()
end

-- i want to put funcB here

thanks!
that's exactly what I was looking for. Had tried a few variations but none had worked
