Code: Select all

for i,v in ipairs(t) do 
    table.remove(t, i) 
end

in love.update() and it does remove them but it does it with a second delay so I'm going to try what you said doc

artofwork wrote:I have no idea why you used a for loop to create buttons anyway I fixed the problem by creating a class to draw out the buttons I also made some changes to some of the files i'll list them here & upload a working love file.

main.lua

Code: Select all

width=love.graphics.getWidth()
height=love.graphics.getHeight()
function love.load()
Button = require'code/button' -- since this is loaded 1st we can call it anywhere :)
require 'code/menu'
require 'code/imgLoader'
require 'code/game'
--require 'code/death'
--require 'code/player'
--require 'code/enemy'
--require 'code/sound'
gamestate = "menu" -- has to be global, so we stick it inside love.load 
menu.load()
game.load()
mx = 1
my = 1
end

function love.mousepressed(x, y, button )
	newGame:mousepressed(x, y, button)
	quit:mousepressed(x, y, button)
	controls.q1:mousepressed(x, y, button)
	mx = x
	my = y
end


function love.update()
	if newGame.state == true then
		gamestate = "playing"
		newGame.state = false
	end
	if controls.q1.state == true then
		-- this controls the fight button
		controls.q1.state = false
	end
	if quit.state == true then
		gamestate = "menu"
		quit.state = false
	end
	
end


function love.draw()
	if gamestate == "menu" then
		menu.draw()
	elseif gamestate == "playing" then
		game.draw()
	end
	love.graphics.print("FPS "..love.timer.getFPS( ), 10, 10) -- no need to add tostring()
	love.graphics.print(string.format("Click X %0f", mx), 10, 150)
	love.graphics.print(string.format("Click Y %0f", my), 10, 170)
end

function love.keypressed(key)
	if key == "escape" then
		gamestate="menu"
	end
end

menu.lua

Code: Select all

menu = {}

function menu.load()
	newGame = Button(210,175, "Start", "l", "/imgs/button.png")  --New Game
	quit = Button(210,210, "Quit", "l", "/imgs/button.png")  --Quit
end



function menu.draw()
	love.graphics.draw(title,0,0)
	newGame:draw()
	quit:draw()
end

game.lua

Code: Select all

game={}
turn=true

function game.load()
    controls = {q1,q1x,q1y,q1t}
    controls.q1 = Button(366,277, "Fight", "l", "/imgs/button.png")
end

function game.draw()
	love.graphics.draw(backround,0,0)
	love.graphics.draw(player,70,78)
	controls.q1:draw()
end

I created this buttons class a while back but modified it to suit your needs

button.lua

Code: Select all

Button = {}
Button.__index = Button

setmetatable(Button, {
    __call = function(cls, ...)
        return cls.new(...)
    end,
})

function Button.new(x, y, text, button, image)
    local self = setmetatable({}, Button)
    self.x = x or 0 
    self.y = y or 0
	self.image = love.graphics.newImage(image)
	self.width = self.image:getWidth()
	self.height = self.image:getHeight()
	self.text = text or "button"
	self.textPos = {}
    self.textPos.x = self.x - (font:getWidth(self.text) / 2) + (self.width / 2)
    self.textPos.y = self.y + 5
    self.button = button or "l"
    self.state = false
    return self
end
   
function Button:draw()		
	love.graphics.draw(self.image, self.x, self.y)
	love.graphics.print(self.text, self.textPos.x, self.textPos.y)
end
   

function Button:mousepressed(x, y, button)
	mx, my = love.mouse.getPosition()
	if self.button == button and self.state == false then 
		if mx > self.x and mx < (self.x + self.width) then
			if my > self.y and my < (self.y + self.height) then
				self.state = true -- see
			end
		end
	else
		self.state = false
	end
end
   
return Button
