Anyone gonna help a newbie? Again...

Post by LuaWeaver »

Sorry about this. I just have this error in mai code.

function love.draw()
if not selected then
love.graphics.print("PLEASE SELECT A GRID SIZE 4-8", 200, 200)
else
local h=love.getSize(W) --These 2 are in a different script. Just gets height and width of screen. Made it to save typing.
local t=love.getSize(H)
h=h/selected
t=t/selected
grid=love.graphics.newQuad(0, 0, 242, 241, h, t)
love.graphics.drawq("blank.png", grid, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) --Here's the error! Says "Incorrect parameter : expected userdata"
end
end

  1. Please use the code-tag,
  2. Please state clearly what error message you are getting (not only as a comment in the code),
  3. You need to use an image object instead of a string:

Code: Select all

-- in love.load():
blank = love.graphics.newImage("blank.png")

-- in love.draw():
love.graphics.drawq(blank, grid, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)

Oh, duh. (facepalm) Thanks. I'll fix it right now, I thought I could directly call the source, something like ROBLOX used to work. Speaking of which, NEVER GO THERE. :P. Next time I'll use code and not as a comment.

Sure, but that doesn't necessarily mean the best. If you let people look at other's scripts it makes you feel kind of worthless. Look at this one for example.

Ok, so look at the average scripter's script.

Code: Select all

while true do for i=0, 1, 0.1 do game.Workspace.BrandonFireflower.Head.Transparency=i wait(0.1) end for i=1, 0, -0.1 do game.Workspace.BrandonFireflower.Head.Transparency=i wait(0.1) end end
See the difference?
