About spaceships (as mentionned by Peter Hickman in this thread): In many "modern" 2D shmups (i.e. post 1994), the hitbox of the spaceship and bullets are rectangles slightly smaller than their respective sprites, allowing them to slightly overlap without exploding. This prevents the "...

Yes, that's the problem: I can't change the source code of the libs, most of them making their requires with the "package.file" syntax. However, I looked at the Lua C source code and reimplemented the "loader_Lua" (mapped to package.loaders[2], see "loadlib.c") and &quo...

Ok, thanks.

And did you try to package the LUBE code within your .love file, for users that don't have LUBE installed? That's what I'm trying to do.

I eventually wrote a Lua loader that allows me to require Lua files by calling "require 'package.file'" instead of "require 'package/file.lua'". It's not great, but it's all I have so far. local loader = function(fileName) local file = fileName:gsub("%.", "/")...

Is there a template value that could be added to packag.path (like './?.lua') that would make "require 'package.file'" work? I couldn't find any.

Alternatively, has someone writen a package loader that accomplishes the same thing?

Cheers!

Ok, I found out. [Edit] Or not. I have a directory named "SomeGame", where my main.lua and all Lua source files reside. Then, I start the game from outside the directory, with the command "love SomeGame". So, to require "SomeGame/package/file.lua", the following works: ...

Hi, thanks for this awsome framework in this great programming language. I try to package some existing Lua libs in a LÖVE project, but I have some troubles with "require". A lot of existing Lua code use the following syntax to require the file "package/file.lua": require "p...
