Error: Bad Argument #2 to rectangle

[MattyAB]

Hey Everyone,

So I've just started making my first proper game (Check it out here: https://github.com/tom7tomm/SuperDodger), and have got an error whilst trying to create a rectangle to be drawn on the scree. It says "Error: Bad Argument #2 to rectangle (number expected, got nil)" This only happens when I press space to start the game, and I will upload a .love file. How do I stop this?

Thanks!

The error means that the second argument in the rectangle call is nil, but a number is needed. The second argument is player.x. It is defined in player.load, player.load is never run. To fix this, add player.load to line ~24 in menu.lua (where you switch from menu to gameplay).

Aha, thanks. Didn't notice that I never said to run player.load!
