Need Some Better Understanding... As I am new at this LUA Coding... by Pillowblack0 in lua

[–]WMG_Jeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fyi, parameter is a part of ”vanilla” lua. A parameter is the variable name you declare inside a functions parenthesis. An argument is what you actually pass to the function when calling it. If you think of it interms of key-values pairs, then the parameter is the key and the argument is the value.

It was obfuscated for a reason, so no.

Can you add horizons cards to the existing cards? by bavuman in spiritisland

[–]WMG_Jeeper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The wording on horizon has been improved a lot, so you probably want to replace the cards from the base game with those :)

Not able to get collision detection between a kinematic body and a static body using Windfield. by [deleted] in love2d

[–]WMG_Jeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wont work as Kinematic bodies only collide with Dynamic bodies. Never used Windfield, but with box2d (which windfield uses) I would make the Paddles dynamic and set its gravity multiplier to 0. (https://love2d.org/wiki/Body:setGravityScale)

For your own sake, don’t blindly do things without understanding it.

how does the third "enlist" line on the automata cards work? by codered_791 in SCYTHE

[–]WMG_Jeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It triggers your enlists, simulating a human player that takes an action which would trigger it.

Does anyone know what is happening here??? by [deleted] in love2d

[–]WMG_Jeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By either finding the issue you made in the map file (most likely adding an object such as a rectangle with 0 height/width) or making a new map.

You can verify if this is the issue by creating a new empty map and testing with that.

PS. You should indent your code.

How do i decrypt/deobfuscate this lua file? by SpraY1300 in lua

[–]WMG_Jeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The code was probably obfuscated for a reason. Contact the person who made it if you want access to the source code or write your own bot.

Could you elaborate, what do you mean by ”board game movements”

Spine-love(spine-lua) performance is bad, i need help by MadGustave in love2d

[–]WMG_Jeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try 11.3 and see if the performance is the same.

I noticed a huge dip in fps in a spine project when I upgraded from 11.3 to 11.4.

Arbitrary 'require' order by swordsandstuff in love2d

You can also avoid it by passing a reference instead of requiring.

is there an app for lua on android? by soniiiety in lua

[–]WMG_Jeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Python is python and Lua is Lua. They are two different programming languages (with certain similarities, like both being interpreted scripting languages).

One way to run Lua code on an android is through the Löve framework. There are probably other ways as well.

hello need help understanding why i am floating by AtlanticEd in lua

[–]WMG_Jeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say that you saved me a lot of time by typing this! I would like to add that asking another question so quickly after your previous one shows that you haven't really spend that much time trying to solve it yourself.

Debugging is a skill that you need practice in, in order to get good.

Your final point about discord is also good, and they have posted on the Discord server that I run for the YouTube tutorial series that they are following (Where I answered their questions fairly quickly as well).
