[Question] Overwrite an API function

Hey everybody,

So im trying to overwriting an function in my little API for special usage. I can overwrite the function by just saying:

os.loadAPI("myAPI")
test = function()
  print("the function i want to use")
end
myAPI.test = test
myAPI.test()
-- prints "the function i want to use"

And that works fine if i just want to call that function. The problem is that other function from within the API still call the old version, not the one i created.

Is there any way to make that happen?

Where it calls the function in your API, you probably have it just call test(), correct? Change it to myAPI.test() and it should work correctly.

Thanks for the answer, does that mean i have to reference everything in my API with "myAPI.function"/"myAPI.variable"?
