Yea but that mostly checks if the ball is going straight on the x axle. But if it's going in a diagonal fashion then your statement might miss that!

I've put together a small image representation to explain this:
From this I hope you also see the obvious problem.

Woa ok
Well I tell you; it's a good game, looks nice! Just lacking some minor stuff.
But if you've stopped this project then I wont bother you, good luck on your latest project!

When playing around with the code, I noticed that the maximum score you can possibly get is around 2'082. Because at stage 53 or whatever it is, there are too many dots then the player can handle. So if every dot is broken at stage 53 there will spawn enough for you to lose. Just a suggestion: Add t...

I am grateful for your help, and I've found some solutions: This problem is called "Speculative Contacts" . I got 2 sites viewing a solution those are kinda different from each other. (Both are from wildbunny.co.uk, but they are different) http://www.wildbunny.co.uk/blog/2011/03/25/specula...

Ah man, while looking at my code I am just thinking more and more on redoing it
I thought I knew Lua, but then löve put me back on the world

If you post your .love you could help us help you. For a game like pong the collision can be very simple.

Woa holy fuck I knew there was a thing like this!!
Damn this confused (and scared) me o.o

So I've been struggling around with löve and so I made my first game; pong. But I'm experiencing a problem: I bet you all know how movement works in games, the graphic dosen't move, they jump. For example: if they got let's say a speed of 10 they will "teleport" 10 pixels each tick. But th...

Try tostring on the site value when you print it. The tostring() function did not work, it gave me the same error. -- the code. well, part of it. site = tostring( http.request("http://google.com/") ) --snip-- That code scares me! D: :shock: I do somewhat understand what the first part ins...

Now I got a small problem with the http.request(). I don't know if I should make a new topic about this, but oh well.. So what I've done is I have set it up to download a site and print it. It worked at first try, wich I am very happy of. But as I was testing different sites I noticed that google's ...
