Is There A Way To Make A bully Jump Like A Koopa Para-troopa And Chase You At The Same time Like In Super Mario World With Bowser's Clown Car? if there Is, I Need A Code for Something like That. Like For Example...

If A Bully Was On The Ground, It Would Jump Up At A Y Speed Of A Koopa Para-troopa, Then Fall The Same Way As A koopa Paratroopa At A Y Speed, Then It Would Do The Same Thing Over And over, But It Would Chase You At An X Speed. I Hope that Helps.

I tried to access functions from lunaworld.lua in lunadll.lua and got "attempt to call a nil value." Functions are a type of variable, right?

Strange... I will try later, in the meanwhile try this:

and call it with

Maybe this works

Goomba with a Red Paragoomba-like Behavior

Hopefully this helps.

LunaLua 0.5.2.1 is out with just a mainV2.lua fix. No binary update!

Replace onLoop with onLoopSection1 and modify the attributes
you can then copy the code for onLoopSectoin2, onLoopSection3.... ect

LunaLua version 0.5.3.1 is out!

Changes:

* Added function getLevelName()
* Added function getLevelFilename()
* Added class Level (for overworld code)

Documentation will be updated soon!

LunaLua v0.5.3.2 has been released

Changes:

Spoiler

* Added npc.isValid()
* Added exceptions for npcs and players if the index is invalid for better coding experience.

Okay guys, the SUPER AMAZING SUPER-PATCH 0.5.4 IS OUT (just fixing my stupid memory-leak >.>)

... while fixing the memory-leak I also did:

Spoiler

* Added a constructor for VBStr with a string pointer (not a memory address, use mem with FIELD_STRING for memory address)!
** Added FIELD_STRING for the mem-functions! Usage:

Code: Select all

function onLoop()
   printText(mem(0x00B2D764, FIELD_STRING).str, 20, 300) --Prints out the level name
end


..or if you want to save up the pointer:

Code: Select all

function onLoop()
   local theLevelNameStrPointer = mem(0x00B2D764, FIELD_STRING)
end


* Added all other lua-libraries including cinematX.lua, raocoin.lua, triggers.lua, musix.lua, multipoints.lua.

Oh man: Huge update!

Before all the changes to lunalua: This dll is compiled with VS 2013 (+Windows XP Support). If you use an old OS you probably need the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013.
(I will link on the main Page).

Anyway with the LunaLua v0.6 release, there are following changes:

Spoiler

* Added a bunch of lua libraries
* Added a new event called "onTriggerEvent(eventObj, eventName)", which triggers if a SMBX Event is called.
* Added a new class called "Event" [used in onTriggerEvent(eventObj,...)] which provides fields like "eventObj.cancled = true".
Raw Event-Class Overview Code:

Code: Select all

  class_<Event>("Event")
         .property("eventName", &Event::eventName)
         .property("cancleable", &Event::isCancleable)
         .property("cancled", &Event::cancled, &Event::setCancled)
 

* Added a new class called "Data". This can be constructed and should be used as a new version of "userData" with lots of improvements.
Raw Data-Class Overview Code:

Code: Select all

  class_<LuaProxy::Data>("Data")
            .enum_("DataTypes")
            [
               value("DATA_LEVEL", LuaProxy::Data::DATA_LEVEL),
               value("DATA_WORLD", LuaProxy::Data::DATA_WORLD),
               value("DATA_GLOBAL", LuaProxy::Data::DATA_GLOBAL)
            ]
         .def(constructor<LuaProxy::Data::DataType>())
         .def(constructor<LuaProxy::Data::DataType, std::string>())
         .def(constructor<LuaProxy::Data::DataType, bool>())
         .def(constructor<LuaProxy::Data::DataType, std::string, bool>())
         .def("set", &LuaProxy::Data::set)
         .def("get", static_cast<std::string(LuaProxy::Data::*)(std::string)>(&LuaProxy::Data::get))
         .def("get", static_cast<luabind::object(LuaProxy::Data::*)(lua_State*)>(&LuaProxy::Data::get))
         .def("save", static_cast<void(LuaProxy::Data::*)()>(&LuaProxy::Data::save))
         .def("save", static_cast<void(LuaProxy::Data::*)(std::string)>(&LuaProxy::Data::save))
         .property("dataType", &LuaProxy::Data::dataType, &LuaProxy::Data::setDataType)
         .property("sectionName", &LuaProxy::Data::sectionName, &LuaProxy::Data::setSectionName)
         .property("useSaveSlot", &LuaProxy::Data::useSaveSlot, &LuaProxy::Data::setUseSaveSlot)
 

Because I am already pretty tired I will write the doc later. But I provided the "Raw ... Overview Code", some of you might understand it.
Here is a example code for the new Data-Class:

Ok, this is probably the stupidest question, but which link is the lua 0.6 on the main post?

"Download SDL Version" is the main dll.
The other files are just support files.

That's where Lunalua 0.6 is? THX

Updated to LunaLua v0.6.0.3 fixing a serious issue.

Events should now work again properly without problems!

Okay... so first of all this thing is fantastic.

Second of all is there a place to report bugs if I find them? I was going to report one but you've already fixed it sooo....

local myDataFile = nil;
function onLoad()
 --Use Data.DATA_LEVEL for saving in the custom level folder
 --Use Data.DATA_WORLD for saving in the episode folder
 --Use Data.DATA_GLOBAL for saving in the smbx/worlds folder
 --The last parameter is true or false, if the data should be save-slot-local.
 myDataFile = Data(Data.DATA_LEVEL, "mySection", false)
 
end

function onLoop()
 local stars = myDataFile:get("myStarCounter")
 if(stars == "")then
 stars = 0
 else
 stars = tonumber(stars)
 end
 stars = stars + 1
 myDataFile:set("myStarCounter", tostring(stars))
 myDataFile:save()
 printText("Counter: "..stars, 30, 100)
end


What is the "section" parameter for? I think I get what everything else does.
I don't see why the variables can only be set as strings, though. Couldn't you make it possible to use strings or numbers without the need for concatenation?
(LUA works that way normally anyway, right?)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Yay! 100th post!

Section is the same as a new "file". If you don't specify the section name, you will get the default name.

The change for strings is just better to use. You can save the data way better in a string format.

The onEvent function isn't working. I get " <name> or "..." expected near ' "exit left" ' (from the top line) when I use this code:

The same error, a lot of other people had.

you do:

Events are just functions with parameter, you cannot put a raw string as a parameter.

LunaLua v0.6.1 is out with following changes:

Spoiler

* Resturctured Audio Module [Tutorial]
* New Defines Module
* Added function spawnEffect (replaces runAnimation)
* Added new fields towards the Animation Class
* Added some new function signature overloads for spawnNPC
* Optimzed the VBStr fields, they can now be assigned directly to a string.

A LunaLua Hotfix (v0.6.1.1) is out which fixes NPC.direction.
