Need a little help?

[Nero-One]

Ok, so I borrowed some code so I could modify it to suit my needs. Its the general tiled map loader for love, but whats confusing me is 1) how do I add collision to the map? and 2) how do I add a player sprite?

Its going to be a top down shooter, so any input/examples of making the character rotate to follow the mouse will be helpful too.
Heres the code: (in main.lua)

Code: Select all

love.filesystem.load("tiledmap.lua")()

gKeyPressed = {}
gCamX,gCamY = 100,100

function love.load()
	player = love.graphics.newImage("gfx/player.png")
	print(player:type()) -- outputs: Image
	x = 0
	y = 0
	TiledMap_Load("map/map01.tmx")
end

function love.keyreleased( key )
	gKeyPressed[key] = nil
end

function love.keypressed( key, unicode ) 
	gKeyPressed[key] = true 
	if (key == "escape") then os.exit(0) end
	if (key == " ") then -- space = next mal
		gMapNum = (gMapNum or 1) + 1
		if (gMapNum > 10) then gMapNum = 1 end
		TiledMap_Load(string.format("map/map%02d.tmx",gMapNum))
		gCamX,gCamY = 100,100
	end
end

function love.update( dt )
	local s = 500*dt
	if (gKeyPressed.w) then gCamY = gCamY - s end
	if (gKeyPressed.s) then gCamY = gCamY + s end
	if (gKeyPressed.a) then gCamX = gCamX - s end
	if (gKeyPressed.d) then gCamX = gCamX + s end
end

function love.draw()
	love.graphics.print("Current FPS: "..tostring(love.timer.getFPS( )), 10, 10)
	love.graphics.print('WASD=scroll, space=next map', 50, 50)
	love.graphics.setBackgroundColor(0x80,0x80,0x80)
	TiledMap_DrawNearCam(gCamX,gCamY)
end
