Re: How would I make an image flip over like a card

Change its scale from 1 to 0 and then display the backside with its scale changing from 0 to 1. Use the cosine function to make it more realistic. I attached a simple example.

Re: Help with calculating trajectory

If you don't want to do any of the math, then you can just simulate the shot. Take the table, the cue stick and the balls into an separate physics environment, do the shot there and if the white ball hits any other ball, then you have all the information you need to draw what you want: At the moment...

Re: Game freezes fatally after only 20 seconds of gameplay

The problem is, that you are loading the images thegovernment.jpg and textures/normal.png every frame. Load them once in love.load() like you do with the videos and music. This fixes the freeze for me.

Re: Bottons activating when I maintain them on touchscreen

Yeah but if I do that I would be able to maintain the jump button and have some sort of auto jump and I don't want that Then add a little state machine to prevent that: little_state_machine.png This could look something like this: function love.load() player.jumpingState = "isNotJumping" ...

Re: help cleaning up my code

I would suggest the opposite of BrotSagtMist: Create more functions that only contain 1-3 lines of code for better readability. As an example your function love.mousepressed() has 5 indentation levels. With some easy refactorings you can get this down to two or three and have an easier time to read ...

Re: Timer as Integer ?

You want the math.floor function: print(math.floor(19.02032)) -- prints "19" If you want commercial rounding you need to add 0.5 to your number before you use math.floor : function print_rounding(number, rounded_number) print("Rounding " .. tostring(number) .. " to " .....

Re: HTML+CSS UI Rendering

I only came across LURE, [...] And I am confused, I do not know how to use it, there is nowhere at least a brief instruction on how to use it. You cannot use it (yet): LURE is currently under development and cannot yet produce rendered content. If you want to use Lua as a scripting language, but us...
