Whoops, sorry to leave you hanging!

I just ran the code and was not stopped by the compiler. It displayed a red rectangle in the top right corner of a black screen.

Keep up the good fight, my friend, I know how painful it is to have to debug your debugger. Probably the worst experience in coding.

There is almost certainly no end of file error in that player code... you're certain you posted all of it ( even comments, etc) ?

Hey there, welcome! I'm pretty new here myself. I've gotten pretty proficient with love's physics system by now, and I've done some homebrewed physics in FlashPunk before, so I'll try to help you out. My first thought is, for your own sanity, you should separate the collision detection code from the...

thanks for the offer, mate!

I've implemented all the functions I mentioned up there while I was waiting, but I would still be happy to see any libraries for these kinds of common operations. I'm all about collaboration

So, basic things like "angleTo(fixture1, fixture2)" or "angleToXYcomponents(angle)" and "XYcomponentsToAngle(vx,vy)" Things that dont seem to be included anywhere in love that make life easier. I can do it myself, but I'd rather stand on the shoulders of giants, naw mean?

ahh, excellent. The other benefit to singletons is lazy instantiation. That is to say, I can call it from anywhere as something like local camera = Camera:getInstance() In order to get the benefits of lazy instantiation, would this be a viable modification to your code? function Singleton:included(t...

Hey all. I want to make a singleton mixin for all my singleton needs! Here's what I've got so far - local class = require 'middleclass' Singleton = {} function Singleton:getInstance(...) if not self.class._instance then self.class._instance = self.class:new(unpack(arg)) end return self.class._instan...

Is there a way to make a rectangle only expand in a single direction on a given axis instead of it expanding in both directions? The same difficulty happens when you are drawing rectangle shaped bodies in love.physics. I solved the problem by only using the polygon function and manually creating a ...

Can I get someone to clear up some wording on the wiki for me? I can't sort this out... it's from the [wiki]Fixture:setFilterData[/wiki] page on the wiki - If two fixtures are in the same group they either always collide if the group is positive, or never collide if it's negative. Is the group zero ...

yep. they sure did get me with that gotcha. Way to diagnose, Slime.
