Re: Accessing Data from the conf.lua file

Actually, this would be the easiest, I think: conf.lua configTable = {} -- use any variable name function love.conf(t) t.screen.width = 800 t.screen.height = 600 t.title = "Test Window" configTable = t end main.lua function love.load() local screenWidth = configTable.screen.width -- access...

Re: Accessing Data from the conf.lua file

You could also just declare global variables in the conf.lua files, I think. It is possible, though, that LÖVE does not run the two files with the same Lua_state. Anyways, this is how you'd do it: -- conf.lua S_WIDTH, S_HEIGHT = 800, 600 S_TITLE = "Test Window" function love.conf(ct) ct.sc...

Re: Jupiter - Save tables to files

I know that it sounded like whoring, but it was not meant to do that, at all. I was just trying to tell you, that I thought you overcomplicated it. I see that it easily looks like something else.

Re: Storage - Save data to files
