[LUA] Getting error "io:5: unsupported format" when trying to use io.read("*number")

As the title says really. For a reason I'm not sure about I'm getting error "io:5: unsupported format" when trying to use io.read("*number") to get the user to input a number rather than a string. Thanks for any help.

If memory servers "*number" isn't implemented in CC Lua… use tonumber( io.read() ) instead :)/>

Awesome, thanks.
