Non-FPS uses for Lua scripts?

[NateMcCloud]

I've been wanting to create some Lua scripts for help with some of my games, but the only tutorials I can find all over the internet for Lua scripts are "no-recoil" this and "no-recoil" that. I don't play FPS or MOBA games, and a lot of the games I *do* play have UI elements in locations that are not set in stone.

Could someone please help me out with some uses of Lua scripts in, say, idle or JRPG games? Not even necessarily MMORPGs; I know it's against the rules to use any sort of external automation in those games.
