LÖVE

the save folder also contains a "AI" folder. The AI folder near the .love also don't have a tutorialAI2.lua in it.

Larsii30, thanks for reporting!
The AI folder in the save directory was still there from previous test, forgot to remove the code that creates it.
I attached a new version, can you replace your trAInsported.love with this new one and try again? If it crashes again, please tell me the last few lines in the console (start with the --console command line option).
Thanks!

I hate how directory manipulation is so hard in Löve ... and I don't want to move everything to the save directory. But maybe I have to. The problem with using the save dir was that I can't enumerate there... I can't use global paths. That's why it gets complicated.

Is it rendering the wrong map? This is all threadded... that's why it got pretty complicated.

Ok , I'll do my best : (screenshot marathon !!)
here's how I run the game :


so far, so god.
Then the map is rendering :

and everything seems to work perfectly :

So I load the tutorial1 map and...

Everything works perfectly.. damn, it was buggy last time.. But wait ! I hit "End Match" and the online game is rendering again :
and here comes trouble :


And if I load a tutorial (let's say tutorial 2), trains are off the rails again (is that a correct sentence ?)

I hope I have been of some help !

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation!
I'll try to recreate this situation on my side.

For one thing: To play the tutorials, you need to cd into the Folder first. Because the working directory needs to be the one containing the AI folder.
So in your case: And run it without (!) the --host trainsportedgame.no-ip.org option to play the tutorials. That way it'll only look for connections on localhost which it won't find. Then the tutorials should work fine because they won't interfere with the server's map.

Yeah, I already am in my game folder, And , I already tested the tutorials without the "--host" part.
It was just to mention the bug !

Has anyone gotten it to work on windowze with the update I posted 4 posts ago?

Hi,
I am willing to try, as it looks gorgeous. But I can run it on my computer. It just crashes when I attempt to run it, saying love stopped working.
I am on Windows 8, x64. Do I need to have some minimum specs to run it ?

Here's how it should work on windows:
- Download the file in the first folder. Extract the .zip
- Download the second file I posted, a few posts back, replace the .love with this new one
- open a console, use "cd" to get into the directory where the .love file is. Example: - run the game: (make sure to use the right path to your Love.exe and the --console option) Could you try that for me? It would help a lot! And if it crashes again, can you tell me the stack backtrace and exact error message printed in the console?

Yay, Ochros submitted his first ai. Watch it beat my ai by using the host option...

Yeah, sure. I just tried, and it still fails.
