If you make each wall tile a separate object with its own properties, you could create them all with random shake values and in their update callbacks handle the movement. If I did it, this is my method: blockObject = {} function blockObject:init(v) local _i = {} setmetatable(_i, {__index = self}) ...

Anyone?

Or is this literally impossible?

Hard to explain, but I'll try nevertheless... Now, I used the gridlocked player tutorial, and changed it a little bit, but what I'm trying to do, is make the walls (smoothly) shake/move about (like, give it an effect that it is in space), but I tried everything, and nothing worked. Check out the att...

Well for smooth scrolling, you would actually need to have two background 2s. Something like this function love.load() background=love.graphics.newImage('space1.png') background2=love.graphics.newImage('space2.png') background1x = 0 background2x1 = 0 background2x2 = background2:getWidth() dir = -16...

Code: Select all

if math.abs( background2x ) >= background2:getWidth() then
    x = 0
end

Well, it kinda works, but I'm not going to ask for more help, since it feels like I'm asking for too much, I'll tweak it.

Ah. No, they are not actually "merged", I just meant that they were both being drawn. To get the scrolling effect, you can just set the x value for the images, and use it as the second argument in love.draw. function love.load() background=love.graphics.newImage('space1.png') background2=...

What do you mean? It should be exactly what you want, if I'm understanding you correctly. It is drawing both of them, with 2 at the top, and 1 at the bottom. Oh, it is! Haha, 1 has stars that look similar to 2, so I thought it was just 1. I asked you how I can separate them because I thought they w...

I needed the .love to make sure the images were actually transparent, etc.

Hm, so is there anyway to separate them 2?
