I think all comments in LUA begin with a "--" (no quotes). What I am not sure about is if you need to nest them inside tags (most languages don't require this).

I found in another RuleSet :

in lua file :
-- my comment


in a xml file in a script section


<script>
--[[my comment]]

...
...
</script>

From Wikipedia:

-- A comment in Lua starts with a double-hyphen and runs to the end of the line.
--[[ Multi-line strings & comments
are adorned with double square brackets. ]]

The multi-line string format is required for comments in control script sections, but you can use either format for comments in separate script files.
