modules dont work

[fixylol]

on the top of my script, i put

Code: Select all

require("Level.lua")

, yet for some reason despited Levels.lua actually existing within the game folder it threw an error saying it doesn't exist in the path i put love itself in...

Require does not take file names, it takes module names. To translate a module name into a filename, you replace all dots with slashes, then append .lua. (Or see [manual]package.path[/manual] or [wiki]love.filesystem.setRequirePath[/wiki].) So in your case, you should be using:

Code: Select all

require("Level")

And I should note that zips are case-sensitive, so make sure that matches too.

thanks

but now i have another problem... for some reason pairs() thinks a table is the number 14 (i used v, not i)

Show code. Also what vars you use don't matter

Code: Select all

books ={}
books["Book of Bartbes"] = "a bunch of text"
books["How to make things with LOVE"] = "even more text"
for title, content in pairs(books) do
    print(title)
end
