Sorry to bring it off topic but I just realised we are EXACTLY the same age (provided you didn't lie about the year you were born when you signed up)

Re: "Questions that don't deserve their own thread" thread

I've been learning how to use opengl recently and I noticed that opengl rotates in degrees while love uses radians. Is there a reason that this is the case? Because if anything I would expect the hardware accelerated functions (i.e. opengl) to use radians, as they are more useful in mathematics, whi...

Re: "Questions that don't deserve their own thread" thread

While I don't know the answer I do know that the wiki says not to use love.graphics in a thread (other than the main one obviously). So I wouldn't recommend doing it even if it did update the main thread's version of the canvas

Re: 0.9.2 question.

I was poking around in the source code for love.audio and it looks like someone has already started to implement microphone support
OpenAL/Audio.cpp
wrap_Audio.cpp
Looks like someone tried to hide their work

Re: Configuration for users

You could disable the window in conf.lua then, when loading the config file, create the screen with the right settings to prevent a different window appearing briefly

Re: Segmentation Fault

It seems to be a problem with LuaJIT. I reduced the problem to this: local t = {[0] = {}, [1] = {}, [2] = {}, [3] = {}} while true do for i = 3,0,-1 do t[i].foo = t[i - 1] end end This crashes both LÖVE and standalone LuaJIT. You're creating an infinite loop. Of course it is going to crash

Re: I might be making a tool to generate LÖVE executables

Plu, I didn't mean that uploading the .love to a random server would be a problem because people can read your source code, I mean that it could be a problem if people get access to it in general. Like if you have a game in development, and you're not ready to show it to the public just yet it woul...

Re: Size of a string in bytes, for networking...

Oh, yeah sorry I misread the document the first time, 8192 is the maximum. I misread it as it is the current maximum but you can up it by changing the number. I guess you'll have to either use some kind of workaround like splitting the packets and sending them (but then you have to reorder them at t...

Re: Size of a string in bytes, for networking...

According to the LuaSocket site it defaults to 8192 bytes, but you can change that by calling

Code: Select all

udp:receive()
with a size argument, eg

Code: Select all

udp:receive(16384)
