Anyone done latitude/longitude/geolocation things?

I just thought I might start a new challenge by doing some sort of economy/market simulator based on real locations and started thinking how I might draw lat/long data using Love2D. I'm thinking I'd have a flat map of the globe (2D) and then somehow convert known location lat/long as pins onto this ...

Horse stabel manager

This is a very niche meta-data heavy game where you need to comb the stats for the horse that will make you money and then race that horse.

Nice job. The video is set to private only - at least for me. For a not-free game I highly suggest adding some text to your itch.io page.

I see the demo throws an error. You should redirect to a "sales" page that encourages peeps to pay for the full game.

Game idea: PBEM race neural networks

Think of a race track and autonomous robots have to race around a track or run to the end of a maze but the robots have real neural networks and the NN really learn. If there are like 8 robots on the track then there are 8 real NN's learning while on the track. It's a game where you literally watch ...

Re: Atom alternatives

I still use Atom even though it is discontinued. I think Pulsar is the name of the new tool but I haven't looked into it.

Re: Loading/saving a table??

I try to embed a reference to those external things instead of putting them into the table.

Instead of a table of images I'll have a table of file path strings to those images. Can't always do that though.

Re: Only Packaging Some Files in the .love File?

You'll need to be clear with your user base that a one time full installation is needed before benefiting from smaller patches but yeah - often thought about this but never bothered to try it.
