I use this code:

local output = "hello"
output = output .. "/n world!"

but when i print output, it prints only "hello/n world!" and makes no new line.
My question is now: What am I doing wrong?

You have to use a backslash:


local output = "hello"
output = output.."n world"

So simple.. I'm just thinking way too complicated. :/ Thanks for your help!
