error explorer - an interactive error screen for love

Post by snowkittykira »

hi! i wrote an interactive error screen for love. it's a drop-in replacement for the builtin error screen, that lets you browse the stack and any local variables when an error happens.

Why is this not part of Löve already? :D

Great job. This could be especially helpful to novices who aren't familiar with error reports.

Haven't had the time to try this yet, but looks really neat. I especially like the variable tracking on display.
Might not be something to ship with finished projects, but looks handy enough to use during development.
