Re: HUMP: Gamestates. Cleanup question

Sorry to not answer your question directly, but it seems adding a Timer.clear() to the leave function did the trick. But I guess my larger question is, should I be making all of those variables local, and passing them to things, rather than making them global? I guess this is more of a large scale s...

Re: Bluetooth and local multiplayer

Spaceteam uses bluetooth or local wifi (it's not made with LOVE, but just as an example).

I think local wifi may be the way to go anyway.

(Also Spaceteam is amazing and everyone should play it. Great at parties!)

HUMP: Gamestates. Cleanup question

Hi all, I'm trying to wrap my brain around Hump's gamestate functions. I've got them working in that I can switch from my main menu to my "gameLevel1" and back again. The issue is, every time I switch back and forth, it seems like all my enemy and pickup generators are doubled. If I switch...

Re: love2d install error

The path looks correct, I have a couple questions though:

1) Have you closed and re-opened ZeroBrane Studio after making that change to the config? It won't take effect until you do.

2) Was this in Settings:System or Settings:User?

[SOLVED] Error: Attempt to call upvalue (a nil value)

Hi all! I'm back with another question. So I'm using hump's class system, and everything is going swimmingly so far. Or was, until I added another class. Which to me means I screwed something up in the code for the new class. I've made classes before and it went fine, which has me pulling my hair ou...

Re: How exactly should I learn

Here is a tutorial that really helped me wrap my brain around Lua/Love: http://sheepolution.com/learn/book/contents The thing is, there is no one answer to any of this stuff. For example, when it came time to do collisions detection, I looked around. It looked like the one built into Love was overki...

Re: Anyone run Love2d on Cloud9 IDE?

I tried this, but found that I couldn't find any good way to actually test the game I was making. There was some workaround to actually VNC into the Cloud9 box you were working on, but I couldn't get it popped up from there, due to some sort of graphics driver issue. It was a huge mess.

Good luck!

Re: [library] bump.lua v3.1.4 - Collision Detection

Nice! Thank you, that actually makes a ton of sense!

And good tip on the require thing. I know about things being case sensitive, but I must have overlooked that one. Thanks again!!
