Thank you all so much for helping me, this has been really instructive, and i've made tons of progress and solved lots of problems in the last couple days

Note to self - stop banging your head against things, and ask for help

You need to stop using push for that. what i think i should do, based on your suggestion, is run the game at a much higher resolution, and then draw everything scaled down to the window size. that's what i did in the code below, and it seems to solve the problem! but this seems to solve the problem...

yes, i am using that library. i have read that it is very commonly used, and i assumed that everyone here would have it already. i'm sorry for not posting in the correct format, but i am just learning. i don't know how to export a file yet. but the code is very short, and it takes only a second to ...

rect.draw_y = math.floor(rect.y - 0.5) -- not sure, but you use negative y; Also please test the code with positive y, maybe your error is here. subtracting y makes the rectangle move upwards instead of downwards. changing this does not help, as you can see be running the code below, which contains...

I've updated this comment: https://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=90455#p239262 I'm not sure what specific update you made to the comment, or what specifically you intended to clarify. It seems that your suggested solution is to run a conditional if statement on every frame for every mov...

I see the problem that you make x=x+dt*speed, but the minus by the y. Also speed_x can be not same as speed_y. y is minus so that the rectangle moves upwards instead of down. this is not a problem. speed_x and speed_y do not exist in the example so i'm not sure what you mean, and an object can cert...

You can round your position after the moving, when the player don't press keys anymore. So the diagonal movement will be pretty smooth

This is what i'm doing in example 2, and the movement is not smooth. Is there something wrong with how i coded example 2?

You round it again rect.x = math.floor(rect.x + 0.5) rect.y = math.floor(rect.y + 0.5) I'm not sure i'm following - this is what i'm doing in example 1, but it breaks at low speed. Example 2 is the intended fix. The draw position is rounded instead of the actual position, but this causes choppy mov...

If you overwrite rect.x and rect.y the movement will be choppy and it won work when rect.speed*dt < 0.5 If you want to use rounding, then just do it when drawing: love.graphics.rectangle("fill", math.floor(rect.draw_x + 0.5), math.floor(rect.draw_y + 0.5), rect.width, rect.height) I'm not...
