FWIW \x is a LuaJIT extension backported from Lua 5.2. http://luajit.org/extensions.html#lua52

Why not draw the score after finishing the camera?

Not sure what problem you're having. Even with the default font, that character works for me. And the one in Roboto Regular as well.

Nice work, glad you got it working

May I suggest you to look into using love.graphics.setScissor for the scrolling area? It will help you clip the top and bottom properly without the entries suddenly appearing or disappearing.

Thank you, pgimeno. I've tried your solution and it works fine but with a couple of problems: If the sprite is taller clipping will still occur Yes, that's why I said the technique is not perfect, even if simpler. Sprites won't appear "centered" inside the tile where they are standing It seems to m...

That problem is not an easy one to solve. More people seem to have faced that problem with other engines, e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/bq0lt3/2d_sprites_3d_world_a_tricky_clipping_issue/ While intuitively the intention seems clear and straightforward, mathematically it's much harde...

Thanks for the test case. I see the effect you mention. It's hard to know whether this is intentional, because the original author is no longer around to ask, but in any case, it's clear that changing the behaviour is going to affect existing applications, including the demo, so I'm disinclined to a...

It's right there in the wiki: Game_Distribution Once you have your game executable you can pack it together with all the other DLL files of the official LÖVE .zip file into a new .zip file and share this with the world. (emphasis added) The instructions for generating a Windows executable from Linux...

I still don't understand. The "Speak" button has the "Chat" input element as parent, while the "A Button" button has no parent, and I don't see a difference between them.

The kind of GUI you're after, with nested tabbed containers, is too complex for explaining it in a forum post. If you can't do it yourself, I suggest you look into pre-made GUIs. But then I'm not aware of any GUI written in Lua that allows both horizontal and vertical tabs. In fact, I only know of L...
