Thanks, that's exactly what I need!
One more question. When an error appears, can I somehow write the text of the error to the error log file (error**.txt, where ** is a consecutive number of a file)?

Your own error

Is there any way to crash the game with an error manually (with your own error message text)? I mean something like that: if a==0 then <game crashes and the error message appears with the text "Error! a=0"> end This can be useful to check the code during running the game. So is that possib...

Re: What is the default line break size?

Seems that I've found the answer. I just had to multiply the Font:getHeight by the number of lines. Thus 14*1=14, 14*2=28 etc. So, I guess, the margin of each of the line is 1px from each side. Anyway, thats enough to make the text box borders depend on the text block size properly. Thanks for the h...

Nope, unfortunately. Whenever I have 1 or two lines the height is still 14 (with 12 size font)

What is the default line break size?

Is there any way to find out the default distance between the lines in a wrapped text? I'm making the text box, which size depends on the width and the number of lines of the text. In order to calculate the required height of the box, I use the following formula: Number_of_lines*Font_size+(Number_of...

Re: [Library] anim8 - An animation library - v2.0.0 released

I'm facing one more issue. There is some object, which has a random animation from time to time (just like in many platformer games, when you don't touch any key for a while). The problem is that sometimes my animation timer turns on at the time unknown to me and after it reaches 0, it triggers a ne...

Re: calling a function from an argument of another function

Now I understood! :awesome: For example, if I create these two functions function print(text,x,y) love.graphics.setFont(font) love.graphics.print(text,x,y) end function performfunction(func,ar1,ar2,ar3) func(ar1,ar2,ar3) end Then calling performfunction(print,'It works!',300,200) will perform functi...

Re: calling a function from an argument of another function

function factory(text) return function() print(text) end end Well, I see, I can set an argument of a function2 as an argument of a function1, which runs the function2. But what if the function does not have any arguments? How can I call it from another function? (The issue is not about printing fun...

calling a function from an argument of another function

Is it possible to call a function from an argument of another function, like this: ? function love.load() tmr=4 end -- function "timer" is called from love.update(dt): -- The function print('Hi') prints the word "Hi" function love.update(dt) timer(tmr,print('Hi'),dt) end -- the t...
