Thanks for all the help, I'll take a further look at it tonight and try to figure it out

I need a way to check if an x,y coordinate is within a rotated rectangle. The available data I have available of the rectangle is: -x,y of the centre of the rectangle -angle -width and height Now, I think that if I'm able to rotate the x,y coords I need to check and the rectangle, then I'll be able ...

Yes and no. LÖVE is designed to save in the application data specific directories, but it does lookup a environment variable for those paths on Windows and Linux. For Windows it's APPDATA and you could change it to something else in the command prompt or in a batch file and then start LÖVE. Alright...

I've created a level editor so I can make levels for my game, but I can't get it to write to a file. All the data are in forms of tables, and I want to store them as ta...

Snip Yeah, I went with the easy/rough estimate way for now, it seems to be working good, unless you're 1 cm away from your screen and examining the fire and player :P Maybe when I get more advanced with programming and game creation I will make my own particle system (This is my first game after al...

Here's an image of what's going on:
I suppose the emitter position and some offset would be enough for a rough estimate, and probably enough accuracy for my small game. But if anyone knows a better way I could do it, I'd like to know

In my game I've created a fire using the ParticleSystem, however I want it so if the player touches the fire, then the player loses HP. It seems the easiest way of doing this would be getting the particles position and matching them to the player positions. But I'm having trouble as of how to get th...
