Spacing out

[Robin]

So, crashing into a black hole is only a little death?

In the real game, it'll obviously mean lost progress.

New version!

And don't forget to check the new polls!

I tried playing the latest version. When I select new game I see this:

Code: Select all

Error

ui.lua:82: attempt to index field 'landed' (a boolean value)


Treaceback

ui.lua:82: in function 'drawbase'
main.lue:78: in function 'draw'
[C]: in function 'xpcall'

I hope that helps!

Wow, that's odd, it's working now...

[Robin]

That's because the code that checked whether you have landed on the platform is awkward. It uses three different variables to determine if you have landed:
player.landed (holds the planet you landed on)
ui._landed (same)
ui.showlanded (holds a time starting from one second since you last landed on a planet, to make sure things don't flicker.)

When you are on the platform when the game starts, one of the variables is not inited yet (because of the order of which ui.update() and player.update() are called). Thus only happens sometimes, but it will be fixed in the next version.

Man, these daily releases are addictive.

Also, new poll.

Just did my first succesfull landing!

[kikito]

Me too!

I liked these guys:

Code: Select all

love.graphics.push()
love.graphics.translate(w, h)
love.graphics.scale(graphics.zoom, -graphics.zoom)
...
love.graphics.pop()

... camera stuff, eh?

Does this support particle systems? (I'm thinking about the starfield, in case it is not obvious enough)

Hell if I know. I'm no hero with particle systems.

New version!

space.0.0.5.love

Buy ship-y

But not all is well in the land of Space. The auto-nav is broken. It perfectly steers towards its goal, but I can't figure out how to let the ship slow down when it arrives (without cheating).
Also, there are some new hidden features. As always. Why do I even bother saying this? KqzoPhr.
