Its due to the elseif from what i see. If you have all keys in their own if...then blocks then they will not exclude. assume w is down assume a is down --psuedocode if w is down --do stuff W elseif a is down --do stuff a end here if w is true, then we never evaluate a etc. but if we do --psuedocode...

So below is the code for my project's character animation and move function. When I press the d key the character moves right and the animation follows. When you hold the d key and then the a key the character moves to the left. When I try the same but press the a key first the character doesn't swi...

Ah, I am a real idiot... Thanks and sorry for wasting your time to all.

There it is. A .love file of my project with the directories that it uses. I have tested it on my PC and it works exactly the same as it would in my IDE. So the buttons don't actually seem to print anything.

Forgive my noobiness, how do I change my seperate lua files into a .love file?

The main.lua file should look like this: local menu = require "menu" function love.load() menu_load() end function love.mousepressed(x, y, b) menu_mousepressed(x, y, b) end function love.update(dt) end function love.draw() menu_draw() end Well I'm sure there will be other things in there ...

Here's a .love of the file you posted with a main.lua to make it work, if you click in the boxes I drew the function gets called. I don't know what else to tell you. menuhelp.love I got it to launch with a console (windows only) to show that the function is being called. I copied the code you poste...

Thanks for your help. Where do I start to analyse why my mousepressed event isn't working? I am pretty clueless at this point. You may have two mousepressed events. You may be declaring it somewhere where it does not execute. The print may be working but not being shown in the output for some reaso...

Are you calling the menu_mousepressed function from main.lua? Like: function love.mousepressed( x, y, button, istouch, presses ) menu_mousepressed(x, y, button, istouch, presses) end Othewise how would it know it has to call it? If so, are you sure it isn't calling it? Maybe the coordinates are wro...

Well, it's hard to help any further without having something we can look into by ourselves. The code in the OP definitely can't help diagnosing why your love.mousepressed event isn't working. Thanks for your help. Where do I start to analyse why my mousepressed event isn't working? I am pretty clue...
