Lua Programming Help Thread

Pllease post you code :D

Its good I messed around and fixed it but I get the [colo=Black]****ING LOOP IN GETTABLE NOW[/black] on the lines with "--Loop In gettable" next to em

Code:

---

black = Color.new(0,0,0)
red = Color.new(255,0,0)

stick = {}
stick.x = 240
stick.y = 200

life = 1
coll = 0
y = 0
speed = 3

spike = Image.load("spike.png")
bg = Image.load("background.png")
death = Image.load("death.png")
stick = Image.load("stick.png")
 
math.randomseed(os.time())

x = math.random(480 - spike:height())

while true do

screen:clear()

screen:blit(0, 0, bg, false)
screen:blit(stick.x, stick.y, stick)    --Loop in gettable

        pad = Controls.read()

        screen:print(0, 240, "Speed: " .. speed, black)

        screen:blit(x, y, spike)

        if not paused then
                screen:print(0, 250, "UNPAUSED", black)
                y = y + speed

                if y + spike:height() >= 272 then
                        screen:print(x, y - 10, "OUCH!", red)
                        y = 0
                        x = math.random(480 - spike:height())
                        screen.flip()
                        System.sleep(2000)
                end
        else
                screen:print(0, 250, "PAUSED", red)
        end

        if pad:cross() and pad ~= oldpad then if paused then paused = false else

paused = true end end

        if pad:up() and pad ~= oldpad then speed = speed + 1 end
        if pad:down() and pad ~= oldpad then speed = speed - 1 end

if pad:left() and pad ~= oldpad then      --Loop In gettable
stick.x = stick.x - 2
end

if pad:right() and pad ~= oldpad then    -- Loop in gettable
stick.x = stick.x + 2
end

oldpad = pad
screen.flip()
screen.waitVblankStart()

end

---

And the stick.x stuff has to be like that otherwise the player wont move

LUA PLAYER BUG?

If you do like this:

Code:

---

if BGSoundTimer >= 1 then
BGSound:play()
BGSoundTimer = 0
end

---

It obviously plays the bgsound.

But if you have any other sound that starts exactly when "BGSound" stops, then BGSound just stop looping, just stops.

It drives me nuts, because i really want to finnish my game!

if pad:right() and pad ~= oldpad then -- Loop in gettable
stick.x = stick.x + 2
end


end

Why don't you use

Code:

---

if pad:right() and
oldpad:right() ~= pad:right() then   
stick.x = stick.x + 2
end

---

That might fix the problem.

i still get the error for the

Code:

---

screen:blit(stick.x, stick.y, stick)    --Loop in gettable

---

i'm getting loop for gettable with...

Code:

---

monster = Sound.load("sounds/monsterkill.wav",false)
voice = monster
monster:stop() -- this gives loop gettable thing

i'm getting loop for gettable with...

Code:

---

monster = Sound.load("sounds/monsterkill.wav",false)
voice = monster
monster:stop() -- this gives loop gettable thing

---

luaplayer dosnt understand what monster means because monster is not a command.

He assigned monster to the sound he loaded

That's because there is no loop to break.
i rather would use:

Code:

---

if pad:start() then
dofile "index.lua"
end

To refresh the program, while creationg something in lua.
