No, semi colons are not mandatory in Lua, however, Lua does recognize them. So you should not have any issues if you place them at the end of your lines.
As a fellow C# programmer, this habit is almost second nature to me. Thankfully it will not hinder anything in Lua.
From what I can see, you only need to use semi colons if you are writing multiple statements on the same line. Although, that is usually discouraged.
