Re: sfxr.lua - Generate sounds dynamically at runtime

Sorry if it's bad form to resurrect this thread. If so, let me know and I will start a new one. I was excited to find this because I wanted similar functionality in a project I'm working on. So I spent some time over the past couple of nights getting it to work nicely with 11.3. After building the o...

Re: Table referenced between scripts is "nil". Why?

floorplan is local and not returned anywhere, so it's not accessible outside the scope where it's declared.

You need to add

Code: Select all

home.floorplan = floorplan
before you return the home table.

Re: Object orientation & code complexity [Multiplayer 4X]

You were only showing the first sub-table. I modified your program so that the x positions of the boxes are each different, it prints the values for each box, and so that the box colors are different. (I stored the colors as a sub-table of each box.) That should make it easier to get a mental pictur...

Re: Cannot open a game in 0.10.2

In that case, try using the second method on the wiki page to run it and see if you can get a better error message. /Applications/love.app/Contents/MacOS/love /Users/[My username]/Desktop/assignment0 I don't have a mac handy to try on right now, but I just re-downloaded the zip and confirmed that 0....

Re: Hot Particles - particle editor

Very nice work. Works great here. (Love 11.3, Fedora 32.)

I'm happy to take this to PM if you think it's a distraction here... but what is up with the source? It's not quite lua, and googling gloa in various combinations with lua is not enlightening me yet.

Re: Cannot open a game in 0.10.2

I'm doing that course too. Definitely stick to 0.10.2 until you are very comfortable with the differences. I'm probably going to use 11.3 for my final project, now that I am getting ready to start that, FWIW. Does '/Users/[My username]/Desktop/assignment0' directly contain main.lua? The folder you o...

Re: Object orientation & code complexity [Multiplayer 4X]

(Aside: you probably want a new topic for this instead of attaching it to a very old thread...) I don't exactly understand your goal, but I see one problem: In you second loop, each v is a table, not a field. If you want to display field values, you need something like for ii, vv in pairs(v) do -- p...

Re: Attempt to perform arithmetic on "color" a nil value.

Check to see if you're accidentally calling brick.render() instead of brick:render(). self isn't passed as an implicit first parameter with . the same way it is with : .

Re: Advancing animation frames manually?

Thanks for posting this. I was debugging something kind of adjacent to this, and reading/thinking about your question helped clarify things for me. Even though I'm not 100% certain I understand your question. Here's the little program I made to help me understand things: key_quads.love Note that the...
