kudoLib (LÖVE Library)

[Kuromeku]

So I'm going to be adding some useful little libraries here, free to use obviously. Please keep checking this page because I will add more libraries to it and then eventually compile it into one big library (kudoLib).



Name: Timer Library.
Version: 1.01.
Download: http://kudomiku.com/projects/love/kudol ... _timer.lua.
Functions:

Code: Select all

kudolib.timer:new(delay, repeats, callback);
kudolib.timer.class:run();
kudolib.timer.class:pause();
kudolib.timer.class:reset();

Example:

Code: Select all

myScore = 0;
myTimer = kudolib.timer:new(5, 0, function()
	myScore = myScore + 1;
	
	-- Check to see if we've reached the maximum score.
	if (myScore == 10) then myTimer:pause(); end;
end);

Instructions:

Call the following function in LÖVE's update callback.

Code: Select all

kudolib.timer.update();

Name: Vector Library.
Version: 1.0.
Download: http://kudomiku.com/projects/love/kudol ... vector.lua.
Functions:

Code: Select all

kudolib.vector:new(x, y);
kudolib.vector.class:length();
kudolib.vector.class:dotProduct(vector);
kudolib.vector.class:distance(vector);
kudolib.vector.class:angle();
kudolib.vector.class:rotateAround(vector, angle);
kudolib.vector.class:normalize();
kudolib.vector.class.__add(a, b);
kudolib.vector.class.__unm(a);
kudolib.vector.class.__sub(a, b);
kudolib.vector.class.__mul(a, b);
kudolib.vector.class.__div(a, b);
kudolib.vector.class.__eq(a, b);
kudolib.vector.class.__tostring(a);

Example:

Code: Select all

myVector1 = kudolib.vector:new(512, 512);
myVector2 = kudolib.vector:new(128, 128);

-- Add the vectors together and normalise the result.
myVector3 = (myVector1 + myVector 2):normalize();

-- Print the new normalised vector.
print(myVector3);

Do you mind if I make my own games libraries based off of the timer one?

[Kuromeku]

What do you mean? I only want my name credited somewhere that's all.

-- Based off kudoLib.

or

-- Thanks to kudoLib and Kudomiku.

or some shit.

And I just updated the timer library. I forgot something so now it should work.

^-^)/ Nice! What kind of libraries do you plan to make?

[Kuromeku]

Whatever anybody wants really, or what I deem useful!

Any ideas Rude?

A vector library?

Like getting angles between 2 points etc.

I know it can be done without a library but it would be nice to have for convenience.

[Kuromeku]

Basic Vector library added. Will add more advanced functions later.

[Nexion]

Where do we add the libraries in, and I can't remember the Lua line to include a file.

Where do we add the libraries in, and I can't remember the Lua line to include a file.

Put the libraries in your game folder/zip.
love.filesystem.include is the function to include a file. love.filesystem.include("kudolib_timer.lua") etc

[SnakeFace]

An extensive rounding library would be nice.
