1) the same way you set a local variable, just without the local keyword
2) DoYourThing() (capitalization is entirely optional) - however you need to have the DoYourThing() function defined beforehand

O_o Iso-test, a minimalistic test, downloaded 40 times?! Anyway the isometric version has almost reached feature parity with the orthogonal version. The GUI is there, the enemies and items spawn and can be interacted with appropriately. The character creation screen received an additional button tha...

Thanks Karai, I managed to figure it out (I was getting the tile under the cursor from love.mouse.getPosition() while I should have used gamera:toWorld(). I'm now wondering how would one implement a FOV with STI, given that STI draws the whole map at once. The part of the map outside FOV would proba...

What about STI? I've never used it's full potential, but maybe I'll be able to help? I was having a weird offset issue, turns out the fix was grabing the coordinates via the gamera (gamera:toWorld) instead of just love.mouse.getPosition(). Anyway, the teething issues with STI are all but solved, so...

Zerobrane Studio does have working debugging indeed. The way it's set up prevents the use of lovedebug library, though. And if your gamee is large, you have to manually flip its on/off state to avoid freezes/slowdowns.

Karai, I'm having problems accessing the tile data in layer. Specifically, I'm using STI's convertPixeltoTile to know what tile I'm mousing over, then I want to get the gid of that tile to know what kind of a tile it is (wall, floor, etc.). The map is isometric if it matters. The old method I found ...

Mitchist, I tried to do some debugging in Zerobrane. The values looked ok so I tried to experiment a bit.

Getting rid of the wait thingy produced the following. So it's wait borking things up, plus it's drawing in the wrong place.

4aiman, that's an awesome line up. Re: ESC, point taken - I will fix this as I get to it. Currently up to my ears in STI

peterrust, I decided to pick up STI after all, due to the ability to work with isometric graphics. I had to start the port from scratch in a new folder to integrate STI properly, but since I have all the LOVE code lying in the old port folder, getting back up to speed should be fairly fast!

Now that STI has the capability to make randomized maps, I've decided to try working with STI. Alas, integrating it with an existing project turned out to be difficult, so I'm starting from scratch again
