Is "continue" missing in DS?

[Argonium]

I usually use "continue" in loops to remove unwanted things, but its missing? Is there any "continue" statement in DS/DST?

[Ultroman]

It's not DS/DST that doesn't have "continue". Lua, the scripting language we write mods in, doesn't have "continue"

It has "break" and "goto", which can be used to sort of mimic a "continue" (read the two top answers AND the comments(!!!))), but those workarounds are generally disliked, so we just try to write our code in ways which do not require a "continue" (like the link shows). Usually, this results in nested if-statements and/or subsequent if-statements and the use of a bool saying whether to skip the rest of the if-statements (which all check that that bool is not true before doing their actual checks).

just a note that since dst uses lua5.1, it has no "goto" statement like in the first answer in the link above
