anti fragmentation measure: a bot that reposts messages between IRC and discord
I know the r/roguelikedev has a bot that does just that, but iunno who made it or what it's called /shrug

The actual code you want is at: https://bitbucket.org/rude/love/src/10f58e78bbfd82b681a45aeaf1177a765726bb31/src/modules/graphics/opengl/Graphics.cpp?at=default&fileviewer=file-view-default#Graphics.cpp-1404 so raidho is right, it constructs a polygon, which then gets sent to the GPU as vertex d...

So when I'm writing something that could be an infinite loop I use something the following function local function safe_iter(max_iters) max_iters = max_iters or 10000 local i = 0 return function() i = i + 1 if i > max_iters then error("iteration limit reached") end end end use like so loca...

here's the sneaky solution: even though love.filesystem only wants to write to the designed save directory, the default lua io functions behave the same way they do in normal lua. this means for example that io.open("file", "w"):write("out\n"):close() will write the the...

I've also experienced crashes in bitser with large tables, but I couldn't reproduce it outside of my game so I just designed around it. in my case it didn't seem to be related to serialized file size: the test files I dumped before each crash were all over the place when it came to size, and maybe m...

`make` builds the program, `make install` installs it, usually.
I don't actually recall if that's how it works in love, but that is how it usually works everywhere else

yep. here's one way to think of it. to render the sprite to the left, you need to pass the texture, a quad, and a transformation matrix to the GPU. To render a sprite to the right, you need to pass the texture, a quad, and a transformation matrix to the GPU. The only difference is the numbers in the...

so my list is pretty similar:gnome-terminal, neovim, ag, fzf, etc Some actual difference is that I'm currently using fish instead of zsh. I originally changed because no matter how I configured my zsh it always had a hint of slowness to it, which fish doesn't, but the fish language is incompatible i...

Here's an already-made gif export library: the only issue is that it uses native code, which makes it harder to get up and running https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=82460 I tried making my own generic animation editor, too. It's not really in a usable state but if you'd like to keep ...

As far as love is concerned, the working directory is _always_ the top of the game folder (or the save folder, or whatever). This means that "assets/sprites/default.png" should work, no matter what file it's written in. EDIT: or it would, but your screenshot suggests it should actually be ...
