Interesting, thanks! So I basically just need to change the dimensions to a whole number. I thought I was already doing that. But I'll have a looksy, and update the topic when I got it fixed. Thanks a lot.

I'm working on a simple Castlevania-style 2d platformer. It uses an 8-bit style, with tiles that are 8 by 8 pixels. Naturally this means all this stuff has to be stretched to fullscreen. Drawing the tiles directly to the screen, and then scaling them, gave very bad results. I basically got a lot of ...

Thanks for all the great advise. I've got it working now.

Now its just a matter of cleaning up all the movement rules for the player, so she can smoothly transition between normal movement and climbing ladders. That will just take a bit of trial and error.

UPDATE! I figured it out I think. It seems the playerFilter, since it is a function, does not like being passed along to another script as if it were a local value. I'm not exactly sure why this doesn't work, but moving the playerFilter to main.lua instantly causes the filter to work. But the boolea...

Hmm, it still doesn't seem to be working. So, first of all, before I move the player, I initialize the playerFilter, like so: playerfunctions.lua: local playerFilter = function(item, other) print("Checking collisions...") if other.isWall or (other.isPlatform and player1.Y >= other.y + othe...

Thanks a lot! I'm going to give that a try first thing tomorrow.

I'm just getting started with BUMP, and while the basics seem straight forward, the documentation leaves a little bit to be desired. Specifically regarding collision types, and collision resolution. I've got a basic 2d tile-based platformer working, with "slide" as the collision resolution...

Success! http://oi66.tinypic.com/2hdscxs.jpg The particle system is working! The game first creates particle emitter templates, which can then be spawned when a script calls for it. Once a particle emitter has been created, it can be addressed by name later, and switched on or off, or have its posit...

Ah, much appreciated, thanks!

And my apologies if a lot of this is basic beginner stuff.
I greatly appreciate all the feedback and help.

So, I now use this script to copy a particle emitter template into a list of active emitters. function createEmitter(emittype, emitname, active, emitx, emity, xspeed, yspeed) local currentemitter = emittertypes[emittype] local newemitter = emitname emitterlist[newemitter] = {name = emitname, type = ...
