jumping tutorial?

I'm running into a bit of a snag it says the for loop needs "do" at the end, but in the example it doesn't have one

here is my code:

Code: Select all

-- Office Man Stan --



function love.load()

	love.graphics.setMode(320, 320)
	love.graphics.setCaption( "Office Man Stan" )

	stan_right = love.graphics.newImage( "P.PNG" )
	ground = love.graphics.newImage( "X.png" )
	background = love.graphics.newImage( "z.png" )
	stan_left = love.graphics.newImage( "P_left.png" )
	-- game variables
	
	player_X = 50
	player_Y = 260
	player_direction = "r"
	-- background color
	love.graphics.setBackgroundColor(104, 136, 248)

	-- map stuff
	
	-- map variables 
	map_w = 20
	map_h = 20
	map_x = 0
	map_y = 0
	map_offset_x = 32
	map_offset_y = 32
	map_display_w = 14
	map_display_h = 10
	tile_w = 48
	tile_h = 48
	
	map={ 
   { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},

I left the default values.

...?
Which one of these generic syntax examples that look like they were pulled from the manual are you looking for?

Code: Select all

while statement do
block
end

Code: Select all

for var=start, max[, inc] do
block
end

Code: Select all

do
block
end

Code: Select all

for var in iter do
block
end

[toaster468]

well the map part i got from the wiki. This seems to be the biggest of my problems i havent gotten any progress yet

What have you left to do?

[TechnoCat]

Code: Select all

	--tiles
	tile = {}
	for i=0,1
		tile[i] = love.graphics.newImage( "tile_image"..i..".png" ) do
end

The errors are in this part. You have a bad for syntax, missing both a "do" and an "end."

OK,I'll see what happens when I change it.

[toaster468]

Awesome!, it works now. Thanks guys

[toaster468]

I just really need to fix the views and stuff

[toaster468]

OK now every time I go farther than what is on the screen at start i get a user data error

[kikito]

Can you post your current .love file and explain what you mean by "go farther than what is on the screen"?
