function love.load()
love.graphics.setBackgroundColor(255,255,255)
--Initialize the ocean to manage the bottles.
--It is going to act as a Queue. FIFO
ocean = Ocean:new()
--Create a timed bottle and add it to the ocean
ocean:addBottle(TimeBottle:new(nil,"...",nil))
local bottle = StayBottle:new(nil,"What is this?")
bottle:setX(310)
bottle:setVolume(0)
ocean:addBottle(bottle)
end
function love.update(dt)
ocean:update(dt)
end
function love.draw()
background:draw()
love.graphics.setColor(0,0,0)
love.graphics.print(
'last bottle return was: '..ocean.response..
' at '..(math.floor(ocean.responseTime*10)/10)..
's from '..ocean.responseID,12,12)
ocean:draw()
end
function love.keypressed(k,u)
if k=="d" then
local x = math.floor(math.random(400))
local y = math.floor(math.random(150))
ocean:addBottle(TimeBottle:new("PRESSED_D","Timed Box!"))
elseif k=="escape" then
love.event.push("q")
end
end
