I'm trying to figure out how to create an unbeatable tic-tac-toe opponent with the minmax algorithm. Im having trouble deciding how to save the placements of the player and ai so that i can check win states and create the minmax trees, which leads to my next problem. How to do a minmax tree. I would...

I have a bit of code that check if the players and enemies are colliding, if they are it subtracts the player attack from the enemy health and the enemy attack from the player health. It does this ones every 20 ticks. if i make both the player and enemy attack the same and make their health the same...

I can't thank you enough. You helped make it work and explained it to a point that I understand what you are doing. Thanks you again so much.

I feel like I have hacked and slashed my way through to get a very rudimentary collision system working and I was wondering if anyone can provide some guidance on how to improve it.

Thanks in advance

I have the shell of a game that i'm ready to take to the next level and start my first "real" game. The last thing I want to implement is dynamic lighting. If you have ever seen terraria, i'm looking for a lighting engine along those lines (I will post an example picture for reference). If...

I'll let the code speak for itself but I can't seem to understand why the player doesn't stop when colliding with the ground?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm working on a top down shooter to learn more about love and lua. I have the basic game in place with collision, health, ammo, and enemies. I would like to continue upgrading but have run into a few snags. 1) first off I would like to add new weapon types, things such as a "shotgun&quo...
