I'm making an app using Corona SDK. In the game you have to touch all the spheres in time and if you win, a you win image appears. I made a replay button under the "you win" message, but how do I say him to restart the whole game?
Here is the code (not all of it):
function winLose(condition)
if condition == "Win" then
print ("Winner")
winMSG = display.newImage("media/win.png")
-- Replay button
local btnReplay = ui.newButton{
default = "media/buttonWhite.png",
over = "media/buttonWhiteOver.png",
onPress = btnReplayPress,
onRelease = btnReplayRelease,
text = "Replay",
textColor = { 0, 0, 0, 255 },
size = 26,
id = "replay",
emboss = true
}
btnReplay.x = _W/2;
btnReplay.y = _H/2 + 50;
elseif condition == "Fail" then
print ("Loser")
loseMSG = display.newImage("media/lose.png")
-- Replay Button
btnReplay = ui.newButton{
default = "media/buttonWhite.png",
over = "media/buttonWhiteOver.png",
onPress = btnReplayPress,
onRelease = btnReplayRelease,
textColor = { 0, 0, 0, 255 },
size = 26,
text = "Replay"
id = "replay",
emboss = true
}
-----
function btnReplay:touch(e)
if e.phase == "began" then
--
elseif e.phase == "moved" then
--
elseif e.phase == "ended" then
-- Here I should say what it has to do to replay
end
end
-----
btnReplay:addEventListener( "touch", btnReplay);
-----
btnReplay.x = _W/2;
btnReplay.y = _H/2 + 50;
end
end
local function trackOrbs(obj)
obj:removeSelf()
o = o-1;
if time_up ~= true then
if (o == 0) then
timer.cancel(gametmr);
winLose("Win");
end
end
end
local function countDown (e)
if (time_remain == total_secs) then
ready = true
end
time_remain = time_remain - 1;
countdowntxt.text = time_remain;
if time_remain == 0 then
time_up = true
if o ~= 0 then
winLose("Fail");
ready = false;
end
end
end
local function spawnOrb()
local orb = display.newImageRect("media/orb.png", 60, 60);
orb:setReferencePoint(display.CenterReferencePoint);
orb.x = mRand(50, _W-50); orb.y = mRand (50, _H-50);
function orb:touch(e)
if time_up ~= true then
if (ready == true) then
if (e.phase == "ended") then
trackOrbs(self);
end
end
end
return true
end
o = o + 1;
orb:addEventListener("touch", orb);
if (o == total_orbs) then
gametmr = timer.performWithDelay(1000, countDown, total_secs) ;
else
ready = false
end
end
tmr = timer.performWithDelay (20, spawnOrb, total_orbs);
You can have a while loop like this
while true do
if mainGame then
--game code
elseif done then
--buttons
if button.restart then
mainGame = true
end
end
end

I am creating a simple platformer with love2d in lua.
I want the player to stand on the ground so that it won't fall.
However I got some proablem that I cannot change the string of a table return from player.lua
(It is a table because the player.lua return m and the last sentance, and m is a table)
I tested that the isOnFloor function is work, but I just can't change the boolean in the player table.
Main.lua
local love = require("love")
local tileMapper = require("tile/tileMapper")
local player = require "player"
local isOnFloor = require("isOnFloor")
function love.load()
love.window.setMode(1080, 640)
love.window.setTitle("Simple Platformer")
tileMapper:spawn()
tiles = tileMapper.tiles
player:setValue()
love.keyboard.keyPressed = {}
end
function love.update(dt)
for i = 1, #tiles do
if isOnFloor(player.x, player.y, tiles[i].x, tiles[i].y, 32, 32 * 3, 72, 72) then
player.currentState = "ground" -- I wanna change it here but when I go back to
--player.lua and try to let it out put the self.currentState, nothing changed --
else
player.currentState = "air"
end
end
player:update(dt)
love.keyboard.keyPressed = {}
end
I try to print out the player.currentState the the line after I set the player.currentState = "ground". It printed out "ground"
But if I print it in player.lua, it is always "air"
player.lua(I didn't paste some of the code here)
m = {}
function m:setValue()
self.x = 400
self.y = 50
self.vtx = 0
self.y_input = 0
self.speed = 300
self.jumpForce = -800
self.gravity = 100
self.anim = {idle = {img = love.graphics.newImage("assets/Idle.png"), maxFrame = 10},
run = {img = love.graphics.newImage("assets/Run.png"), maxFrame = 11},
jump = {img = love.graphics.newImage("assets/Jump.png"), maxFrame = 0},
fall = {img = love.graphics.newImage("assets/Fall.png"), maxFrame = 0}}
self.currentAnim = nil
for i = 1, #self.anim do
self.anim[i]:setFilter("nearest", "nearest")
end
self.frame = 0
self.timer = 0
self.currentState = nil
end
function m:update(dt)
print(self.currentState)
---------------------- Player States Update ------------------------
self:getXInput()
if self.currentState == "ground" then
if self.vtx == 0 then
self.currentAnim = self.anim.idle
elseif not(self.vtx == 0) then
self.currentAnim = self.anim.run
end
elseif self.currentState == "air" then
self.y_input = self.y_input + self.gravity
if self.y_input > 0 then
self.currentAnim = self.anim.fall
elseif self.y_input < 0 then
self.currentAnim = self.anim.jump
end
end
------------------------ Anim --------------------
self:animUpdate(dt)
if love.keyboard.keyPressed["space"] == true then
self.y_input = self.jumpForce
end
self.x = self.x + self.speed * dt * self.vtx
self.y = self.y + self.y_input * dt
end
return m

I am quite new to the Lua language and am trying to create a simple Tic Tac Toe game. I am having difficulties figuring out how to check the winner. I have tried if-then statements but I think I am using them wrong. Not sure what the best way to check the winner is so any suggestions or assistance is greatly appreciated.

So I have this module, where all of its activity during the game is in. In t.physics I add a collision event listener (differentiating if target is a group or a single object). When the concerning objects detect a collision though, the property col of the other object (event.other) seems to be nil, although I initially set it to a string representing a color in t.create. I just can't find the cause for that, can anyone?
Thanks for your help.

Solved. Ugh, sorry, I forgot to define the property on the other object involved (hero), that has its own module. What a stupid slip.
Thanks for your answers anyways!
You don't seem to have any dynamic bodies here. What is colliding with what? Could it be that the other object involved in the collision (the value of event.other) is not something initialized in t.create() and so doesn't have the col property?
From the Corona documentation on Collision Detection:
Some body types will — or will not — collide with other body types. In a collision between two physical objects, at least one of the objects must be dynamic, since this is the only body type which collides with any other type.
Also, in your fill.collision(), I think you want to pass event.target as the first argument to t.grow() rather than target. If you try things, please update the question with more information.
I am trying to code a game similar to simon says. I am currently using corona sdk as my platform. I have written out all my code, but it seems that when I start it, it does not run through my algorithm and does not make a random pattern. It is supposed to run the algorithm once I click on 'Click to Start', but nothing happens. I tried various ways, as well as debugging it, but it seems that I can't find the right solution to this.
I'll post all of my code just in case anything is wrong.

First error I noticed is that in the function onTouchListener you're checking value gameOver which is not initialized (that means it is set as nil) and your condition will be never passed.
put this code into onTouchListener event
print("pattern = "..pattern.." gameOver = "..gameOver)
