What does the @ symbol do in lua/your code? Tried searching on the internet for it and it's a difficult one to find the answer to.

Oh, that's just a shorthand for peek(), which gives the value of a specified byte. Information about this and a bunch of other operator symbols can be found on the Lua page on the Pico-8 wiki: https://pico-8.fandom.com/wiki/Lua

Ah, it's a pico thing, not a lua thing. Thanks!
