this is my code for the module that should make the work easier for me but line 18 is the problem or basically the X, Y, W, H are the problem I dont know, thanks.

It's really hard to help you if you can not tell us what is wrong.

That gets even harder if the code provided runs like a charm. I included this code to a very very leightweight main as this: Initialization and a simple toggle to use something overlapping and something not overlapping within the update function. That's it.

It properly prints out the overlap when the button is pressed.

With the snippet you provided it's impossible to tell what's going wrong in your case. I would guess that you didn't provide all parameters to the creation of the box since you have no default and that would crash when you try to do arithmetic with such values.

The problem is the x,y,w,h is a nil value in line 18

In your object's update you are just overwriting globals, not changing per entity variables... Also, when using semicolon syntax the first parameter passed is self.

Object.update(Object, dt) == Object:update(dt)

Still doesnt do anything and I used : in other functions like enemy which did not cause any problems btw here is my file

And to check the error click start then the first box

Error
Modules/Object.lua:14: attempt to index global 'player' (a nil value)

Isn't your 'player' var local in main.lua? Or is it even declared / set before update is called?

Thats the point if you check the object code you can see player.x,y,w,h if you erase that and write in this way x = x then in object.updateP(x,y,w,h,dt) add xywh now go to level1 and go to level1.update and add or edit object.updatep(player.x,player.y,player.w,player.h,dt)
My goal is just to make a simple collision
I know bounding box

Can someone help me pls?

Your kinda broken English is not helping a lot but alright. I'll try.

If you use player. Or any global variable that isn't supposed to be available all the time (for example if you store the window data in between somewhere or have a global data table for saved variables). You might as well not make it a module. The whole point of modules is to fully encapsulate functionality.

If you just want to separate your code into multiple files you can just act like it's inserted when called with "require". That does not need a return value.

The goal is to simply provide functions with parameters that take outside data (like player location).

Right now it breaks because player is a local variable in level1.lua. This means it is not available in your Object.lua. Because it's local. To level1.lua.

If you provide the player as variable to update this error goes away. Though player doesn't seam to have the variable w.

But as I was trying to explain. You should really try to not use any global variables in your modules. Because that makes the whole abstraction into modules pointless.
