Did you enabled it? in conf.lua.

Code: Select all

print( type(love) )
if false then
  baby:hurt(me)
end

always

Code: Select all

function love.conf(t)
    t.console = true 
do we have to use the conf file in a different way or something ?

If the program LÖVE is launched from has an existing console window, 0.9.2 will use that console window for print output rather than creating a new one.

This is completely sublime text's fault, and the only way around it that I know is turning of output buffering in your program.

Code: Select all

io.stdout:setvbuf("no")

its weird, ive never had this issue before with sublime, its only since moving to 9.2 (ive not changed any sublime settings or my conf file - i use the same one basically in each project)

ive tried previously with io.stdout:setvbuf("no") in main.lua and inside conf

but it's still not appearing...

im using windows 8 (dont know if that means anything) - i will try on my win7 machine later see if its the same on there

*edit
its definitely something within sublime Vs 9.2, as running it outside (dragging the folder on top of love.exe) brings up the console

It's not supposed to open a new console window when run in ST, instead the output should appear inside the ST "log" window.

weird.. sublime's console doenst stay open for me when I run love, when I do open it, it has no prints

i'm getting the same behaviour on both win7 and 8

this has only begun happening when updating to love 9.2 so strange :S

i dont get what would be causing it, ive tried both x86 and 64bit versions

just re-installed 9.1 to a diff folder, ran same project
with and without :
io.stdout:setvbuf("no")

and the console showed up both times

i am using st2 perhaps i should upgrade to 3.. but i dont understand why that would be the issue here ?

anyone else have issues with 9.2 + ST2 ?

Yup.. Same here... I want to enable console in 9.2 and i can't. Weird thing.. But i also can enable it in 9.1... Hope this gets fixe in the next update.
