You don't need to compile Lua scripts, the engine interprets them.

That gadget is for relationships between two units (in particular Starlight and Glint) so it would probably be ideal to make a new gadget.

Damage modification is specific though because it is part of unit definitions which can be post-processed, see the `gamedata/{weapon,unit}defs_post.lua`. In particular check their contents for `damagemult` - this is an old modoption that acted as a general multiplier for most damage sources (caveats: didn't affect environmental damage and wasn't configurable per-team), it was removed because `hpmult` does the same but if you're messing around in your local copy might as well try it out.
