Latest attempt, to no prevail. The ship still carries on drifting into nowhere. Could my keyrelease function perhaps not be working correctly? function keypressed(key) if key == love.key_left and level_one == 1 then player:setVelocity(-5000, 0) player:setDamping(0) end if key == love.key_right and l...

Colisions now work! Or they are atleast detected - which I can work from - I just have a bit of an issue with the new method of making my ships move - it works ok (though the numbers are strange to work with :P I've implemented this function keypressed(key) if key == love.key_left and canmoveleft ==...

Doh! Another silly mistake on my part - thanks very much for pointing that out to me. EDIT: I have a more 'Collision' based issue that I will just add to this thread. I have set up my world - it all runs ok with no errors. I use a 'body:setX(body:getX + 5)' on keyDown.love.key_right etc to move my b...

Can anybody see any reason for this not to work? I'm certain it's just another silly rookie error on my part. But I get No matching function for overloaded 'newBody()' it refers to the second newBody(). function load() world = love.physics.newWorld(800, 500) player = love.physics.newBody(world, arwi...

Just as Skofo said - 'Music' files can only be in MP3, OGG, MIDI, XM, MOD and only one 'Music' file can play at a time, and 'Sound' files can be WAVE, OGG, AIFF, RIFF and VOC and you can have 8 (I believe) playing at one time. You should also be careful as to what Bitrate and Frequency you set your ...

It's quite apparent to me that you are quite young hellfiresage. Programming games is quite honestly not an easy task at all - and LOVE is perhaps the easiest to use API I have come across. There is no way in which anyone on this forum could say 'Just use this code here' as: 1) The one in need of he...

I do not fully understand the math.abs function - to my knowledge that converts negative numbers into positive does it not? How do I use this feature to round the number to the nearest x.xx decimal place? EDIT: math.round = function(x) return math.floor(x + 0.5) end function update(dt) math.round(le...

EDIT: Sorry to completely changed my thread (incase anybody read the original) My new problem is this. function update(dt) level_one_time = level_one_time + 0.01 arwing_engine:update(dt) arwing_engine2:update(dt) arwing_engine3:update(dt) space_bg_y = space_bg_y + 5 love.timer.sleep(10) end It all w...

In that case I think I'll just incorporate a 'Master Volume' option, thank you very much for the info.

Hello again, I understand the usage of the love.audio.setVolume(0.5) command - however I am wondering if there is a way to set the volume for each individual sound played, let me explain. I have defined 3 variables. music_vol = 1.0 voice_vol = 1.0 fx_vol = 1.0 And then defined my sounds. splashsong ...
