Sorry, didn't realize my manual was that old.

...can I get a way of direct define the values I really want and don't define it all the rest/between? I would need some kind of enemy:add(...) "variable/value" parser instead of direct lua variable assign? I think what you're looking for is a function with the format: function foo(...) w...

The last comment is that ui:drawTextWindow's implementation is just too big. It does too many things. You seem to understand that; you have tried to "make it easier to understand" by adding comments. Instead, move each chunk to its own function (probably a local private function)... Thank...

I was going to recommend making a small shells script and just close Love through that, glad you figured it out!

Yeah, insert them in a table so you can show some nice explosions before removing them :crazy: or don't remove them if you want them to be show them dead on the floor or can be risen again as zombies :D I never delete enemies, you could potentially resurrect them even after re-starting the game and...

You could save everything to a .lua file and just load it with the built in Lua functions.

EDIT: Nevermind, didn't read enough replies. TSerial seems like what you need.

I've been programming a SRPG for a few days now and am slowly building useful tables and functions to use during development. I really don't have someone who can comment on my style in person, so I figured that some advice from the Love2D community would be nice. This code stands on it's own, so you...
