Oh, my mistake. Good point, Slime.

Welcome fellow coder! Programming in Lua is the canonical one, and in my opinion an excellent book. I recommend you get the third edition, even though it's about 5.2 and LuaJIT uses 5.1 with some 5.2 features. I'd just mention there is a free online version . It is mostly meant for Lua 5.1, but it ...

Though I am unsure, It seems to me you are looking for a Text-To-Speech (TTS) library. Not "algorithm", cause there are no algorithms for that purpose, as far as I know (I might be wrong, but I do not think so). There are no such thing in pure Lua, or anything ready to use straight with LÖ...

I like that. Haven't tried it yet, but I like the features. May I suggest one thing ? Let the user implement this: function profiler.update(dt) -- this one would be implemented by the user, and will be called every dt in love.update. love.frame = love.frame + 1 end Have this, or something similar: f...

www.♥.org Sounds cute. Sorry if this sounds stupid, but how I am going to type that in my address bar ? I'll go for copy/paste anyway. Too bad, www.love.org is a dating site, apparently. I was afraid that some people woudn't be able to type www.löve.org ... :huh: Other than that, I'd go for löve.or...

It's a bit awkward, but metatables can do this too! local volume = setmetatable({}, { __index = function() return 0 end, -- the initial value __newindex = function(self, k, v) return love.audio.setVolume(v) end, }) local volumeTweener = tween.new(duration, volume, {volume = 1}, easingFunction) You ...

Just a random idea. Create a tween object that changes gradually the volume level from a value to another (Here, from 0 to 1). local volume = {level = 0} local volumeTweener = tween.new(duration, volume, {level = 1}, easingFunction) Then, in love.update , use this : function love.update(dt) -- some ...

I have seen a poop class in the source.

Please take a closer look at community ports.
There's this experimental iOS port. As for Android, this port is pretty much feature-complete, IMHO.

Given the way the instances of middleclass are constructed, if you set something on the class, it is available for its instances. Well, I am always interested in learning new things. I don't know very much of OOP standards, but shouldn't it be the normal behavior of instances ? Can you please elabo...
