I would like more character actions exposed to Lua.

setcommand({type="gotolocation"}) - similar to Lua/Unit
selectedgunindex - make writeable
fire gun
throw capsule
mine
toggle item auto pick-up

entity.walkingstate will let you control the player's movement
selectedgunindex is already writeable
entity.miningstate will let you control the player's mining

As the others, those aren't bad ideas. I'll see what Kovarex says. If he's ok with them I could add them.

Cool. You might want to put a bounds check on it.

Seems like a waste to write my own pathfinding code when you already have an API for it.
