Version 0.5 with 29 playable levels and the control fix thanks to Geo

I got so pissed off about this I stopped working on it but today I sat down and finally found the solution to that bug.

The fix is to use a local variable and set that to equal the result of the io.open
and then close the handler with variable.close(). Works perfect now

neat

I think I'll probably be making a platform psp game in the near future so I'll try to contribute.

General gravity concept that I use with my platform games is that you are always falling regardless. When you jump your still falling but your acceleration upwards is greater than the downward acceleration. When your standing on a platform your still fallling it's just that the object is holding you...

function LoadLevel() num_moves=0 levelnum = tostring(level) map=string.format("%s%s", "./levels/", levelnum) map=string.format("%s%s", map, ".lua") if(io.open(map, r)==nil...

That io.open bug doesnt happen in lua player for windows.

BTW level 29 is interesting :)

I've been working on opening files and it works most of the time but theres another bug to track down. :(

added some of the new stuff you wanted.

just replace the exe with this one.

Nice I'll try it out.

Yes it is..Seems the problem is with io.open()

If I remove it i can get more than 10 calls, but why can i only call io.open 10 times?

function LoadLevel() num_moves=0 levelnum = tostring(level) map=string.format("%s%s", "./levels/", levelnum) map=string.format("%s%s", map, ".lua") if(io.open(map, r)==nil...

Maybe if it matches the oldvalue a delay should be inserted so you don't have to keep pressing it.

Found a weird bug. Ocassionally the game crashes saying the map file isnt there even though it is. If you press back and forth enough times it will show up.

Just to verify your using version 0.4 and seeing that?

Thanks for the levels and feedback. I think I can add everything you requested.. It was basically a quick hack to get a level editor working (~15 minutes in visual basic). I'm gonna play those levels now and add then into the rotation. One question, what do you mean by save as a different name? Like...

Hi guys, Just wanted to let you know I threw together a quick level editor for making new Lsokoban levels. It's very basic and only allows you to save files not load them but I think it's more than enough to whip out a couple levels in no time flat. Just remember to save them to /levels directory an...

dofile does work because I use it. What do you have for code in it and the other obvious question are you positive that your path is correct to it?

It takes time to learn how the hardware works so that an abstraction layer can be created to take advantage of it. I think Lua Player is excellent and will continue to improve.

When I run os.date("%c") on my psp the time is wrong.
It should give me 14:44 but I get 22:14.

What am I doing wrong? the lua player on windows displays the correct time.

Includes a few more levels and the basic scoring info.

That's fine as well.

Your math looks more complex than it really needs to be. All those trig functions can be replaced with a bit of simple if then logic.

Here’s my version 0.1 of lsokoban, the level engine is 100% and you can play the first level. It's written in Lua and you will need to place the files in the lua player applications directory. Editing the array in /levels/1.lua will allow you to create your own level. 2 = pushable block 1= grey bloc...

Sony seems pretty hellbent on stopping homebrew so I doubt they'd go for it.

Well you can now play the game although there's only one level and the game doesn't know that you won yet.

Still need to figure out the best way to do the winning spots on the map..

Thanks for the links I'll take a look. The psp functions are pretty straight forward, the majority of my questions are lua specific.

:) Sure if that works

I don't like the documentation on lua.org...

I'm doing both. I'm just anal I guess :)

Are you going to be continuning work on the Windows Lua Player? I think it's great and very well could be a nice gaming enviroment for making simple cross platform games as well.

Is there away to have array in an external file and then reference it like #include in C?

My goal is to have all the maps be individual files represented by the level name (i.e 1.lua 2.lua 3.lua)

I'm coming along pretty nicely with this for starting yesterday.
If anyone would be willing to make some nicer tiles that would be super.
They need to be 32x32

Here's what I have so far
