Tutorial : Lua map changing

[YouGroove]

--This function will be called once when the program starts



function App:Start()

--Set the application title
self.title="luaTest8"

--Create a window
self.window=Window:Create(self.title)
self.window:HideMouse()

--Create the graphics context
self.context=Context:Create(self.window,0)
if self.context==nil then return false end

--Create a world
self.world=World:Create()

--Load a map
local mapfile = System:GetProperty("map","Maps/map2.map")
if Map:Load(mapfile)==false then return false end

return true
end

--This is our main program loop and will be called continuously until the program ends
function App:Loop()

if self.window:KeyDown(Key.B) then
App.world = World:Create()
local mapfile = "Maps/map1.map"
Map:Load(mapfile)
end


if self.window:KeyDown(Key.V) then
App.world = World:Create()
local mapfile = "Maps/map2.map"
Map:Load(mapfile)
end


--If window has been closed, end the program
if self.window:Closed() or self.window:KeyDown(Key.Escape) then return false end

--Update the app timing
Time:Update()

--Update the world
self.world:Update()

--Render the world
self.world:Render()

--Refresh the screen
self.context:Sync()

--Returning true tells the main program to keep looping
return true
end

 

A strange point i didn't got it work first time ?

I got map loading that worked one time only, chaning map, always re opened the same ?

So in the editor i opened and closed the two maps to check them , and Lua code worked prefectly.

Perhaps my PC ? Visual Studio open behind ? Some memory problem ?

Anyway that code above works prefectly in Lua

is there somewhere a lua tutorial for mapchanges?

 

I think its a bug or something it loads everytime the map I´ve opened in the editor. it just ignore my code. confusing.
