I don't know how imagic works either so I just posted a working glDraw call that just needs a couple of coordinates and to know whether it should render to scene.Notxarb wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 6:19 pmI have absolutely no idea how imagic or drawing graphics works, but I tried to replace the texture with the color property and I got white instead.Enjl wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 5:47 pmReplace the variables and you're set. No texture needed.Code: Select all
local left,top,right,bottom local shouldRenderToScene local renderPrio Graphics.glDraw{ vertexCoords={left,top,right,top,right,bottom,left,bottom}, primitive=Graphics.GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, sceneCoords=shouldRenderToScene, color={0,0,0,1}, priority=renderPrio }
The problem that's stopping the code you tried to use from working is that colours and textures are not interchangeable. By swapping out the draw colour (which is used to tint the object) with a texture, you made it so the code can no longer understand what you were trying to do, so it just substituted the default white.
It looks like it is doing it correctly. Assuming that overlays[k] is a variable containing the circle, it is what's drawn and not the circle itself. Even so, exactly how can I make it a pure black color? Do I need to assign a black texture or a blank texture with a black color?Hoeloe wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 8:37 amThe problem that's stopping the code you tried to use from working is that colours and textures are not interchangeable.

To use a texture on an imagic object, you need to fill it in at the create step, which is in the imagic.Circle function. You do this by adding in a texture argument, and assigning your texture there.
The less obvious issue is that you're creating new imagic objects every time you draw them. This is very heavy on performance, and not how imagic was designed to be used. The way it's meant to be used is by assigning the result of a creation function (such as imagic.Circle) to a variable, and then drawing that. This is what you're doing here, however you are also re-creating the object every frame, which is not necessary. Ideally you'd simply move the imagic.Circle function out of onDraw and only run it as few times as possible.
The reason it's not quite doing it correctly is that it's re-assigning overlays[k] every frame, when it only actually needs to do so once. This means it spends a lot of time creating and destroying objects, rather than just creating one once and drawing it repeatedly.Notxarb wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 5:12 pmIt looks like it is doing it correctly.

I think what's going on here is that it updates the texture every frame (and the texture always changes), and it draws it right after. What I want to do is instead to assign it to a solid black color once and draw that every frame instead. So how exactly can I give it a solid black color (that texture isn't needed)?Hoeloe wrote: ↑Fri Nov 09, 2018 2:24 pmThe reason it's not quite doing it correctly is that it's re-assigning overlays[k] every frame, when it only actually needs to do so once.

As for your other question, colour tints are applied multiplicatively. This means that your tint colour is multiplied with the source colour to produce the final colour. This means that a white tint will not tint the image at all (since white is represented by 1 in the RGB channels), and a black tint will produce solid black (since black is represented by 0 in the RGB channels).

overlays[k] = imagic.Circle

radius = r,

texoffsetY = (centerOnScreenY - 300)/600
}
--overlays[k]:ScaleTexture((800) / (2 * r), (600) / (2 * r))
--draw the overlay effect

endYes, that's right. The player comes across the boss, an event triggers that changes the music from level to boss battle music. After the boss is defeated, a new event causes the boss battle music to stop and the level music to play. I just realised I was overcomplicating things. The editor already has a restore to default event, so I don't need to use LunaLua to do the latter. I just need lunalua to swap to boss music.Daring Tombstone wrote: ↑Fri Nov 23, 2018 6:56 pmEDIT: Ah wait you want the original music to start again after the boss is dead? Sorry I didn't read the second code thoroughly. I got that to work with the eventu API which comes with beta 3. We can make a code like this.
Unfortunately, this, for some reason is causing the level music to restart instead of triggering the boss battle music.Code: Select all
local eventu = API.load("eventu") --Load API function onEvent(eventname) if (eventname == "Dead") then --Triggers on Boss Death eventu.run(Dead) end if (eventname == "Test") then --Triggers on Boss Appearance eventu.run(Music) end end function onStart() Audio.MusicOpen(Misc.resolveFile("Aquatic Ambience.ogg")) --Music Start Audio.MusicPlay() end function Music() Audio.MusicOpen(Misc.resolveFile("Battle.ogg")) --Boss Music Audio.MusicPlay() end function onTick() --Stop Music on Death if player:mem(0x13E,FIELD_WORD) > 0 then Audio.MusicStop() end end function Dead() --Boss is Dead Audio.MusicOpen(Misc.resolveFile("Aquatic Ambience.ogg")) Audio.MusicPlay() end
Ah, yes, that was it. There was an old event I didn't realise was still there. Your method is also very easy to adapt for another level I'm working on where I needed to change the music in multiple sections. Thank you so much!Daring Tombstone wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 9:14 pmAre you sure there's no in game events that's changing the music? I had an issue with music restarting unless I started the level on silence as well as any in game event not triggering music.
You can detect player collision with a block through the function Block.collidesWith(player), if it's 0, there's no collision, 1 means the player is on top of the block, 2 means in the right, 3 means bottom and 4 means in the left. To "get" the block, you can do a for loop with Block.get.Dog Gord Cat wrote: ↑Sat Dec 01, 2018 12:25 pmHow would I make it so a block disappears when it gets touched by a player? I'm new to lunalua : (
Code: Select all
function onTick()
for _,banana in ipairs(Block.get(--[id of the block])) do
if banana:collidesWith(player)~= 0 then
banana:remove(true)
end
end
