A simple way to make bullets would be something like : function bullet(x, y) return {x = x, y = y} end -- a bullet constructor bullets = {} -- a table to hold bullets table.insert(bullets, bullet(player.x, player.y)) -- a new bullet in the bullets table for i, b in ipairs(bullets) do -- iterating ov...

Since I wrote this up in the support section, I figured I'd expand it a little into a lightweight vector class, and a (admittedly, quick) search revealed nothing similar in recent times, so why not share. Don't get me wrong .. HUMP.vector is a fine lib. This is just a quick-and-dirty snippet which m...

You are wasting your time (and ours) on problems (not to mention creating problems that don't exist) which you could easily solve if you were rested.

Apparently, the way Inny showed is preferred. Personally, I like to see exactly what's going into my tables, but the nature of interpreted languages is such that indentation actually hurts your code. And no. Omitting the indents is not a realistic option. Certainly obj.var = func is preferable to th...

You're kidding, right?

Don't know why you'd do all that work converting to degrees and back, but the functions are there if you really need to. love.load = function() vector = { length = function(v) return math.sqrt((v.x * v.x) + (v.y * v.y)) end, normal = function(v) l = vector.length(v); return {x = v.x / l, y = v.y / l...

The first thing I would suggest is to have a look at some existing libs and see how they do it. There are quite a few of them (including mine) and I'm sure they all have something to offer. Re ways to improve your code .. Some of this may be considered subjective, but the majority is at least accept...

Let me just clarify that I'm not stating any kind of law, or even accepted practice, although considering how a fellow developer may want to use your lib should always be among your primary considerations. OP asked for suggestions, so I put forward my preferences as something that might be worth con...

Please don't declare globals in my code. Instead, return a variable which I can assign as I see fit. Depending on what exactly your lib does, it may also be beneficial to return an instance. mylib.lua : local mylib = {} mylib.new = function(this, proto) return setmetatable(proto or {}, {__index = th...
