Can't Print To Output During Gameplay with Zerobrane

[SolarLune]

Hey, there. Been awhile since I was around here.

I'm looking into Lua and Love again, and I've got Zerobrane for an IDE. I've got a basic script running to print text to ZB's console, but it only does that after the program exits. I've made an exception in the firewall and tried redirecting the output in the console in the user preferences lua file; no effect there. Any ideas? Stopping and restarting the debug server doesn't work, either.

Löve2D has buffered output so it doesn't lag bc of it, but you can turn it off:

Code: Select all

io.stdout:setvbuf("no")

Thanks for the tip, that was it.

@SolarLune, that's the right advice; I added this to the FAQ for ZBS: http://studio.zerobrane.com/doc-faq.htm ... put-window

Wherever, but usually atop main.lua
