Metatable problem

[Hexenhammer]

Why doesn't this work?

Code: Select all

local Random = {

}

local RandomMT = {
  __call = math.random
}

setmetatable(Random, RandomMT)



function love.load()

  Random(1, 3)

end

I get "bad argument #1 to 'Random' (number expected, got table)

__call function expects the table you're calling as its first argument

Code: Select all

local Random = {

    }

    local RandomMT = {
      __call = function(self,...)
         return math.random(...)
      end
    }

    setmetatable(Random, RandomMT)



    function love.load()

      Random(1, 3)

    end

EDIT: Forgot to return the value

Yup, works now. Thanks!
