Basically i have a square (player) and the level witch is just a table [example]
[0,0,0,0]
[0,0,1,0]
[1,1,1,1]
I want to be able to detect when the play is walking into a one. what is the simplest way to go about doing this?

But I still suggest you giving HC a try again, but this time with our help.

what is atl?

okay thanks, i'm 13 and really want to make a game. i'll get help this time.

I think im gonna try love.physics aswell because it looks cool xD

bekey wrote:Simplest is using libraries like HardonCollider or love.physics.

What kind of game are you making?

Some more detail and description on what went wrong with Hardoncollider would be nice as well, maybe even add a .love file.

I am making a retro platformer

like the simplest library/built in physics thing...I sound retarded but yeah. is box2D simpler then hardoncollider + collide resoluton?

Platformer

I tried learning hardoncollider but i got confused, I'm thinking about box2D but i hear that it's heavy and I see alot of code so i get kinda scared whats the simplest way to use physics

I have anouther question. How would i go along implementing the hardoncollider physics to my lua table because i have no flippin idea

UPDATE: Nevermind doing a tutorial on platformers a shiet im fine now [solved]

Use some kid of physics lib like, as you said HardonCollider or just use love's physics module

Okay good thats what i tough lol thanks, Im gonna use hardoncollider because my computer is shit and love.physics is a 10 ton hammer lol.

I am useing lua tables and ive rendered the blocks in it. I cant figure out the damn collision detection however, would hardon collider work for this? [SOLVED] kinda doing this a diffrent way following this tutorial http://www.explodingrabbit.com/forum/entries/l%C3%B6ve-platform-game-programming-tut...
