i was using testing the classic library and notice nobody made a version for pico8 ,
the main motive probally is because pico8 uses tokens to limit your scope ,so something like oop can be really token intesive but, i made it anyways so here is classic in pico8.
--classic but in pico8
--class
class={}
class.__index=class
function class:ext()
local nclass={}
for k,v in pairs(self) do
if sub(k,1,1)=="_" and
sub(k,2,2)=="_" then
nclass[k]=v
end
end
nclass.super=self
nclass.__index=nclass
setmetatable(nclass,self)
return nclass
end
function class:new()
end
function class:__call(...)
local obj=setmetatable({},self)
obj:new(...)
return obj
end

tip:use with responsibility.

An early proof of concept for an Total War-like RTS in Pico8.
Controls (Global map):
Left and right arrow - choose territory.
Up and down arrow - choose type of troop to buy.
X - buy troop.
Z - attack territory.
Controls (Battlefield)
Arrow keys - move troop.
Z - choose next troop.
Different types of terrain provide different bonuses:
- Units in Forests can't be shot at.
- Units in Mountains shoot farther.
- Units in Swamps are slowed down.
- Units on Roads move faster.

I want to import my MIDI file into Pico-8,
and there will be a little error with using Denote or Midi2pico.
So I want to try import each tracks separately.
But I encountered a problem.
If I directly paste music data, it always pastes to the track 1, and covering the track previously posted.
and, I don't know how to move the music of track1 to track2.
Like this.
Is there a way to move all the music of track1 to track2 ?
I had used text editor to open .p8 file.
But I can't understand number rule.

I am working on a little shooter where players can move up and down a fixed track, and can aim a cannon to shoot a projectile at an angle. Ideally, this angle can run parallel to the track, but shouldn't intersect it.
I thought I had the math down, but I am running into an issue where the players' projectiles are able to intersect the track. It appears that, even though I constrain the angles that player cannons can point and fire, players seem to be able to extend and shoot a tiny bit beyond it. Strangely, a simple debug test that prints the angles indicates that they should be parallel to the track in these situations.
Angle constraint formulas:
--player 1 is on the left side, and aims right if p1.a<270 and p1.a>100 then p1.a=270 end if p1.a>90 and p1.a<270 then p1.a=90 end --player 2 is on the right side, and aims left if p2.a<90 then p2.a=90 end if p2.a>270 then [ [size=16][color=#ffaabb] [ Continue Reading.. ] [/color][/size] ](/bbs/?pid=116799#p) |

Doesn't work in browser as you need to modify the code itself for your own guesses.
Includes binary decryption and plan on adding more methods.
Also, just a bunch of if statements.

Line Of Sight Function
I`ve created a Line-Of-Sight function that should work for most projects. It checks for map-collisions(using flag0 as the collision layer). Please use it and let me know what you do with it!
I was inspired by this post: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=48889
But i wanted a simpler starting point for my own approach. A Line Of Sight check is a good starting point for you own approach but also involves some math. So to bypass that step use my function:
UPDATE 16/9/22
added a optional length-variable. Use it to define a max "range" of the that line. Keep in mind that the function already neglects far away points.
Also added a new break point for perfomance.
function can_see(x1,y1,x2,y2,length)
--x1 and y1 are the point of view,length is the max distance of the two points
local max_length=length or 1000
local xvec=0
local yvec=0
local len=0
local ret=true

Just wanted to try my hand at a classic game that fits the pico-8 remarkably well.
What's your high score? Have a go! I found it pretty hard getting more than 15.

I'm new to PICO-8, and am trying to get a basic top-down movement system. So far I have this:
left = btn(β¬ οΈ) right = btn(β‘οΈ) up = btn(β¬οΈ) down = btn(β¬οΈ) xspd = (num(right) - num(left)) * player.speed yspd = (num(down) - num(up)) * player.speed if fget(player.x + xspd, player.y) == 0 then xspd = 0 end if fget(player.x, player.y + yspd) == 0 then yspd = 0 end player.x = player.x + xspd player.y = player.y + yspd |
num() takes in a boolean, and outputs a number (true being 1, false being 0)
The problem I have, is that I'm trying to stop the player if they hit a wall (The wall's sprite having flag 0), and I'm not sure what to do. Does anyone know what's going on?
