Hey all you love-ly people! I've got another theoretical question for you. This means I won't be showing any code I wrote, since I'm gonna write it only after I post this message. Okay, so, here we go: The thing I'm going for is a 2d first-person, party-based RPG. You know, like Might and Magic 1 to...

I see two ways to go about this: 1. Some kind of parsing, which is hard to do and very brittle. It's possible to do, but... I don't recommend it at this stage. Especially if you want the NPC to talk back. 2. Keep a word list, like you talked about, and use yourphrase:find(word) for every word in th...

Hey, guys! Me again! I'm not yet at this stage in developing my first love game, but still, it's better to know beforehand. What are your thoughts on implementing a keyword-based text parser as a way to talk to NPCs in a love2d game? It's like this: You activate an NPC. A special NPC screen pops up....

Hey guys! Me again, now with a different issue. This one is another problem that kept me thinking for several hours until I gave up and decided to ask you for help again. The thing is I have this one part in my game, where there's a tonn of text. All of it comes in portions to a rather small dialog ...

Welcome to the forums fam! I Think I can help here! Basically this is what it will look like local utf8 = require("utf8") function love.load() --Because i'm lazy gr = love.graphics kb = love.keyboard name = "" nameinput = "on" end function love.textinput(t) if nameinpu...

Hey guys! Uber-noob here. Just started learning love2d a week ago. I seem to be doing good, didn't have any trouble following tutorials... but there's this one thing, a very simple thing, which I can't figure out at all! Never even found any data on it using google, the wiki, or this forum (maybe I'...
