?

learnGamestate.update = function(self,dt)

You can require them to variables, like this:

• Gamestates can now have an init() callback that will be executed (exactly once) before you first enter the state. Useful for one time loading of resources and stuff:

  Code: Select all

  state = Gamestate.new()
  function state:init()
      self.fonts[30] = love.graphics.newFont(30)
      self.background = love.graphics.newImage('img/background.jpg')
      self.animation = ...
  end

• You can inherit from other classes directly at defining the class - no more akward class:inherit(others) (though that's still possible):

  Code: Select all

  A = class{}
  B = class{inherits = A}
  C = class{}
  D = class{inherits = {B,C}}

• Automatic name inference for (global) classes - the name parameter is not neccessary anymore:

  Code: Select all

  A = class{} -- same as A = class{name = "A"}
  print(A) --> 'A'
  a = A()
  print(a) --> '<instance of A>'

  You still can supply a name parameter if you want (or have to in case of global or module classes).
