LÖVE

No, I'm not making another one of those threads (God forbid that happens). I'm actually pointing out some problems that I've noticed:

• When filling a concave polygon, the filling is done incorrectly.
• When using tab or /t in conjunction with love.graphics.print it give the unknown character.

This may be computer specific, so here we go:
As far as I know, I have everything on the recommended side of the column (except for the multi-touch display screen. I only wish I had that ).

Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

Filled concave polygons aren't supported by [wiki]love.graphics.polygon[/wiki] (its wiki page mentions it.) You could use [wiki]love.math.triangulate[/wiki] to convert your concave polygon into a bunch of triangles which can be rendered properly.

This is fixed for version [wiki]0.9.1[/wiki].

My bad. I guess I just figured it would work.

That's good!

On a side note, why not have love.math.triangulate automatically put in the framework for LÖVE with filled polygons? Any reason in particular?

Providing a tesselation method within löve would be nice though and is not that hard to implement in Lua: http://github.com/vrld/dynamic-light/bl ... ms.lua#L74

Okay. Got it now! Thanks!
