I've been trying to code in my.main game scene and it just gives me an error when I press my start button

[Jolt]

here's the error
Error

main.lua:20: attempt to index global 'Scene' (a nil value)


Traceback

main.lua:20: in function <main.lua:18>
[C]: in function 'xpcall'

My code is:

Code: Select all

function love.load()
playstarter = love.graphics.newImage("TitleAssets/startplay.png")
time = 0
end

function love.draw()
love.graphics.setColor(0, 1, 0.3)
love.graphics.circle("fill", 416, 300, 80+math.sin(time)*10)
love.graphics.setColor(1, 1, 1)
love.graphics.scale(0.55, 0.55)
love.graphics.draw(playstarter, 560, 315+math.sin(time)*8)
end

function love.update(dt)
time = time + dt
end

function love.touchpressed(id, x, y)
Scene1 = ("Scenes/Scene1") <-- error here
if Scene.load then Scene:touchpressed(id,x, y) end
end

Can somebody please explain to me what is going on and give me some better code or help to fix the code right there

What is that even supposed to do? Explain to US what is going on.
Whenever the touchscreen is used Scene1 becomes a string? Why?
Then if "Scene" has an entry 'load' do something.
There is no 'Scene' so that if case raises the error.

I was trying to do scenes but i went nvm I'm getting and figuring out a library for scenes

[Gunroar:Cannon()]

function love.touchpressed(id, x, y)
Scene1 = ("Scenes/Scene1") <-- error here
if Scene.load then Scene:touchpressed(id,x, y) end
end[/code]

Maybe you meant

Code: Select all

Scene1 = require("Scenes/Scene1") --you also named it Scene instead of Scene1

But that's only if you have a lua file called Scene1 in a folder called Scenes.
