G.FindMetaTable

{{Lua_function |
  function_name        = FindMetaTable |
  description          = Returns the metatable stored in _R with that name. |
  arguments            = {{Arg|String}} name |
  lua_state            = {{Shared}} |
  returns              = {{Arg|Table}}|
  library = [[Global Functions]]|
}}

==Examples==
{{lua example |
  description = Defines a meta function that will send a notification to a player.|
  useOn = {{Shared}} |
  code = <lua>local Player = FindMetaTable("Player")
//NOTE: "local Player = _R.Player" could be used as an alternative.

function Player:Notify(text,type)
	self:SendLua("GAMEMODE:AddNotify('"..text.."',"..type..",10) MsgN('"..text.."')")
end</lua> |
}}

==Additional Notes==
* An alternative to this function is using ''_R.NameHere''.
* If you make your own metatable and want it accessible by this function, use ''_R.NameHere = TableHere'' when you've finished defining it.
