[waywardson]

yup proof of concept since it isnt finished yet

[JuniorSlick]

this looks good i love tanks........add a weapon option and it will be awesome

[785274]

OMG this is cool i just played wit my bro. 3 Sugguestion to make it PERFECT , more weapons, make tank move faster and larger map =]

[waywardson]

im thinking about adding more maps...
i could speed up the tanks to thats no prob
and if by different weapons you mean like being able to chose between diferent vehicles i.e. tank,jeep,jet, etc. i might add that in

[785274]

quick question, what can be a cause for me getting the line loop in gettable when i addeda function for my bullet collision???

[Merick]

when I get that it's usually because I've made an error in the way that I called one of the lua player's built-in functions

[waywardson]

what i was trying to do was make afunction to make th health of the player go down when he is hit with the bullet of the opposing player and i keep getting loop in gettable

[Merick]

need to see the code before we can tell you what's wrong

[waywardson]

if player.health > 0 and (Player.x + playerWidth > object.x) and (Player.x < object.x + object.width) and (Player.y + playerHeight > object.y) and (Player.y < object.y + object.height) then
Player.x = oldx
Player.y = oldy
player.health = player.health - 0.5 end
end

that is the code i used....sorry if its completely wrong but im still new at this

[slicer4ever]

player.health = player.health - 0.5 end
end

u have 2 ends

[waywardson]

oh its part of a function

[Merick]

here's the problem - going by the full script in your release, "player" is an image, and "Player" as your table, so trying to use "player.health is probably what's causing the trouble - try using "Player.health" instead

[waywardson]

function collisionCheck(object)
if (Player.x + playerWidth > object.x) and (Player.x < object.x + object.width) and (Player.y + playerHeight > object.y) and (Player.y < object.y + object.height) then
Player.x = oldx
Player.y = oldy
end
if (Player2.x + player2Width > object.x) and (Player2.x < object.x + object.width) and (Player2.y + player2Height > object.y) and (Player2.y < object.y + object.height) then
Player2.x = oldx2
Player2.y = oldy2
end
if player.health > 0 and (Player.x + playerWidth > object.x) and (Player.x < object.x + object.width) and (Player.y + playerHeight > object.y) and (Player.y < object.y + object.height) then
Player.x = oldx
Player.y = oldy
player.health = player.health - 0.5 end
end

that is the whole function

[Merick]

In fact, it would probably be best if you only have the one "Player" as a table, and load your image into it as "Player.img = Image.load("images/player1.png")"

[slicer4ever]

o my bad

[waywardson]

dang i did what you said but i got the loop in gettable again

[Merick]

the only other thing I can think of is to make sure that the table you are passing to the function has all the elements that you are trying to access from inside the function

[waywardson]

ok i got the colision to work but when the bullet hits the tank it goes to an error saying attemp to perform arithmatic on field 'x' (a nil value)
-= Double Post =-
nvm i accidentally solved the problem and it is working now...i am so relieved
