Im attempting to make an adventure game where there is walls the player can collide with
How can i make it where the player simply does not go through the wall?

Unfortunately, collisions is not something you can bodge,
so "love.physics" is probably the best way to go.

1. Lets make the player moving smooth at any PC / at any FPS
use love.update(dt)
I've added widths and heights to the player & wall.

Code: Select all

function love.load()
  gameover = false
  gamewin = false
  player = {}
  player.x = 100
  player.y = 100
  player.width = 20
  player.height = 16
  player.speed = 20
  
  wall = {}
  wall.x = 0
  wall.y = 30
  wall.width = 30
  wall.height = 300
end

function love.update(dt)
  player.sx = 0 --speed by X
  player.sy = 0 --speed by Y

  if love.keyboard.isDown("left") then
      player.sx = -player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("right") then
      player.sx = player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("up") then
      player.sy = - player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("down") then
      player.sy = player.speed * dt
  end
  player.x = player.x + player.sx
  player.y = player.y + player.sy
end

function love.draw()      
  --draw wall
  love.graphics.setColor(127, 127, 64)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", wall.x, wall.y, wall.width, wall.height)
  --draw player
  love.graphics.setColor(0, 255, 255)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", player.x, player.y, player.width, player.height)

end

lets make your player check for collisions

Code: Select all

local function CheckCollision(x1,y1,w1,h1, x2,y2,w2,h2)
    return x1 < x2+w2 and
            x2 < x1+w1 and
            y1 < y2+h2 and
            y2 < y1+h1
end

function love.load()
  gameover = false
  gamewin = false
  player = {}
  player.x = 160
  player.y = 100
  player.width = 20
  player.height = 16
  player.speed = 80
  
  wall = {}
  wall.x = 60
  wall.y = 30
  wall.width = 30
  wall.height = 300
end

function love.update(dt)
  player.sx = 0 --speed by X
  player.sy = 0 --speed by Y

  if love.keyboard.isDown("left") then
      player.sx = -player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("right") then
      player.sx = player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("up") then
      player.sy = - player.speed * dt
  end

  if love.keyboard.isDown("down") then
      player.sy = player.speed * dt
  end

   --use loops FOR to check it for many walls at once
  --make some table... e.g.  obstacles = {}
  --then add all walls in there:  obstacles[1] = wall;  obstacles[2] = tree;  etc
  --add here a loop
  
  --check collisions
  if not CheckCollision(player.x + player.sx, player.y, player.width, player.height, 
                  wall.x, wall.y, wall.width, wall.height)
  then
 	 player.x = player.x + player.sx
  end
  if not CheckCollision(player.x, player.y + player.sy, player.width, player.height, 
                  wall.x, wall.y, wall.width, wall.height)
  then
	player.y = player.y + player.sy 
 end

end

function love.draw()      
  --draw wall
  love.graphics.setColor(127, 127, 64)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", wall.x, wall.y, wall.width, wall.height)
  --draw player
  love.graphics.setColor(0, 255, 255)
    love.graphics.rectangle("fill", player.x, player.y, player.width, player.height)

end

this goes as yer homework

--use loops FOR to check it for many walls at once
--make some table... e.g. obstacles = {}
--then add all walls in there: obstacles[1] = wall; obstacles[2] = tree; etc
--add here a loop
