BUMP collision help

I recently started using BUMP as my collision library after giving up on trying to make collisions myself. So far everything is smooth until I wanted to change the type of collision. I cannot understand how to change the collision of certain objects when it collides with other certain objects. EX: P...

I'm attachin...

[SOLVED] Help. Big memory leak. Not sure why.

Hello, Ive been working on this rougelike rpg game and I ran into a problem. In my maps.lua file in line 84 there is a for loop that respawns all the entities back into the world. But when it runs, the program runs out of memory and crashes. I cant figure out why, maybe I have to optimize my code? N...

I just recently started getting interested in Genetic Algorythms, and decided I would make my own really simple one. My vision is for it to be 4 squares (or people like i call them) that spawn in a maze and go in random directions, recording all the X and Y coordinates where there are walls. Then wh...
