There's cindy too, but it works the other way around. You can use colours in the range 0-255 and include the library only if you're in Löve 11.

And can i do this, because this is working, or is it better to leave the setBlendMode inside the function? Yes, the default blending mode is "alpha","alphamultiply". As long as you restore it when it's changed in love.draw, you can remove it from the functions. It's a bit like c...

Uh, good point, I'm doing it wrong. I've edited my answer to remove the setColor call. The docs specify that love.graphics.clear () clears to 0,0,0,0 already, and in any case it never uses the current foreground colour implicitly. Drawing a rectangle is most likely less efficient than love.graphics....

3)What's the difference in 1/dist and 1/distrootsqred? At face value: none. I can't tell about the algorithm, I just wanted to note that this question seems to confuse terms to a point where you're saying the same thing twice. The formula of the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:...

How to make the yellow part .50 alpha ? You draw to a canvas that you have previously initialized with RGBA=0,0,0,0 (you can clear it with 0,0,0,0 every frame); you use normal blend mode to draw to the canvas, and when you draw the canvas to the screen, you use premultiplied alpha mode. Note that t...

The inverse square of the distance is actually 1/d², it's NOT the square root. Since calculating the distance involves a square root, that square root cancels with the square. The result is:

The above map.lua works for me, and the error is strange because it is reported at line 1 and on end-of-file. Something weird is going on, but since it works for me, I can't help.

No reason to be. The library is not Löve-specific, and Lua 5.1 is around for much longer, plus I don't think the SQLite dynamic library will break ABI compatibility any time soon.

Sounds sensible.

I suggest SQLite. I know of this lightweight driver for SQLite: https://github.com/ColonelThirtyTwo/lsqlite3-ffi Unfortunately it's not 100% complete, but it has worked pretty well for me. Apparently forum member shakesoda has another binding, but I haven't checked it: https://github.com/shakesoda/l...
