Lope2D [Love2D Physics Engine]

Nice
I'm going to make something similar.

alberto_lara, It didn't work with Love2D 0.9. Fixed it. Thank you!

[ilgamer]

Seems like a nice library. It doesn't really matter, but wouldn't it be better if you defined a single "lope" table instead of having lots of functions called "lope_x", like love does? So lope_drawWorld becomes lope.drawWorld. The benefits of this include having less globals and the option of easily changing the name of the entire table.

Done! Thank you.

There is a wiki on bitbucket page. Check it out!

Hi ilgamer, any support for polygons in Lope2D? I barely checked the code and didn't find something about it.

Also I think I found an issue, I don't have an account in bitbucket so, sorry, I'm gonna leave it here:

Code: Select all

require "lope2d"
function love.load()
	gr = love.graphics
	gr.setColor(255, 127, 0)
	gr.setLineStyle("rough")
	r = love.math.random
	w = gr.getWidth()
	h = gr.getHeight()

	floor = lope.newBody("static", "rectangle", w / 2, h - 25, w, 50)
	lw = lope.newBody("static", "rectangle", 25, h / 2, 25, h)
	rw = lope.newBody("static", "rectangle", w - 25, h / 2, 25, h)
	ceiling = lope.newBody("static", "rectangle", w / 2, 25, w, 50)
	poly = lope.newBody("dynamic", "rectangle", 200, 200, 50, 50)
	

	bodies = {
		lw,
		rw,
		floor,
		ceiling,
		poly
	}

	pts = {}
end

function love.update(dt)
	lope.update(dt)
end

function love.draw()
	--lope.draw(bodies, "fill")
	lope.draw(bodies, "line")
end

The above simulation works just with "fill" in lope.draw()

Hi ilgamer, any support for polygons in Lope2D?

Ok, so I made some changes to lope2d.lua to actually support Polygons, no tested with images and the water pools, just the fill mode.

This is how you create a polygon:

Code: Select all

vertices = {
		{x = 194, y = 166},
		{x = 208, y = 149},
		{x = 243, y = 150},
		{x = 344, y = 232},
		{x = 301, y = 283},
		{x = 218, y = 314},
		{x = 160, y = 308}
	}

poly = lope.newBody("dynamic", "polygon", vertices)

Addeed validations for the max number of vertexes (8) and to check if the polygon is convex, hope this helps!

The link to bitbucket does not work, is this being maintained?

[pgimeno]

Looks like the user has been deleted. I keep a clone, if that helps. Not sure how current. Last commit is from April 7, 2014, and I'm pretty sure I cloned it December last year, so it's quite likely it was not maintained.

A good alternative to a simpler love.physics API would be hxdx although it has a few bugs that I've encountered.

Thanks for the note!
