I did some test while optimizing a problematic loop and these are my findings:
2621440 tests
math.random ~25ms
love.math.random ~35 ms
Is this because of the extra access table (love.) ?
Just something interesting I found.

Yeah, I just found out my gpu supports up to 8192x8192. However, if it doesn't support it, it will not get loaded into the VRAM but rather RAM (tested with a 10kx10k image). So it shouldn't be that big of a deal. Probably a performance hit but that requires some more testing. My gpu is fairly new, b...

I have an isometric game and the terrain is spritebatched. Tiles of 32x16, 8 variations, rather small sprite. However I decided that the animated & static objects (buildings and units) on top of the terrain to be also spritebatched. At first this meant I would need to use a rather large image an...

I've always wondered how a function can return two values, in this case, to t and c. And I always forget I can do that...

Here I am again. I'm kinda new to lua's strings, being a C guy and all, and I don't really know every function, so can you help me? I have this string: wood|1000 so the pattern is word|digits First I need to get word and compare it, if it's =="wood" for example and then I need to get the v...

Oh nice, didn't know about pattern matching yet.
Is the parameter of textinput a string, a key, or something else?

I don't want any special symbols in my string so I just wrote my own that accepts A-Z, a-z, 0-9.
How would I handle that with textinput?

But the input has to be case-sensitive and I don't want to remove this functionality which is pretty much built in Windows from the user.
If I have to, I will check on which OS the user is (I'm planning a release for Windows and Linux only for now).

Ah, you were referring to MasterLee's code, yeah, got it.

English is not my native language so can you please expand on that? "every time closure is generated" what is a closure in this scenario? usernameBox ? And I assume the functions which you are talking about are new,draw and init? Do you mean new ones are created when I create usernameBox f...
