Re: anim8 nil value error in multi-scene project

Thank you. Your explanation helped me a lot. Later I will try to create a function to change scenes as you said. I changed the beginning of the main.lua file and now it no longer gives an error, but when it reaches level1, the screen just goes black. main.lua require 'intro' require 'menu' require '...

anim8 nil value error in multi-scene project

Hello, everyone. I'm starting a new game divided into several files, but I don't know exactly how to reference the anim8 library in it. When running the project below, the message "Error: player.lua:44: attempt to index field 'anim' (a nil value)" is displayed. I know it's something simple...

Re: isDown, keypressed or wasPressed?

Although no error appears, the scene is not changed. Where is the error? You will need to use both love.update() to process updates and love.draw() to paint updates. Also: love.keypressed.(key) needs to become love.keypressed(key) Use some environment (IDE) that will announce (and fix) such typos a...

Re: isDown, keypressed or wasPressed?

No error appears? I cant even count all the stuff wrong here. Aside from typos, the main thing is youre calling the tables not the functions. In fact, I had already corrected this error of calling tables instead of functions, but I ended up making the same mistake here on the forum. And I also made...

Re: isDown, keypressed or wasPressed?

For one time events you only want to react the moment the key is pressed function love.keypressed(k) if k=="right" then next() end end and then have all your scene switch logic in its own function rather than having it scattered around in every scene. In this case we need two additional t...

isDown, keypressed or wasPressed?

I'm creating a text based game (with images) and I don't really know how to change the scene using the directional keys. When I use isDown, depending on the duration of pressing the key, the game skips the next scene. Example: function update_forest(dt) if love.keyboard.isDown('right') then scene = ...
