LÖVE

So, how does swiping work on love-android-sdl2? I've read a bit about love.touchmoved() but can't really seem to understand it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I remember a library for gestures in LÖVE called Swingers but I'm not really sure if it is still working.

About the new Android API, there's nothing too complicated, the trio is:

love.touchpressed(id, x, y, pressure)
love.touchmoved(id, x, y, pressure)
love.touchreleased(id, x, y, pressure)

and these 3 functions represent the "life cycle" of each touch. You would need to code something if you want gesture support (this if it's not a library for this already). Good luck!

EDIT: Try to avoid Martin's android-sdl port (terrific work but there's official support now).

What do you mean by Martin's port? Isn't that the official Löve one?

Yes it is.

Maybe he meant the 0.9.2 version?

I'm using the 0.10.0 version.

Sorry, and yes, I meant to use the official API support in LÔVE 0.10.0, there are some key differences like you may notice, like the coordinates (now we have real pixels and not 0-1 ranges) and the id not being a number.

EDIT: There's a snippet in the wiki which shows you how to use touches in 0.10.0: https://love2d.org/wiki/love.touch.getPosition

To use them in love.touchpressed/released/moved, it's almost the same as in the old port, just remember the id is not a number anymore.
