Hmmm, I don't know how I missed this the first time.
Regardless, it looks really epic
Any chance you could upload your library code to pastebin or something like that and give us a link to that sometime soon, because, if it's alright with you, I would really love to implement this in Pacman

I'll post the current code in less than an hour, got to do some housekeeping and add a few functions.

Pretty cool, I might also try a basic window GUI library like this as well.
Also, dragging windows looks rather difficult on the touchpad, maybe you could change instead to holding a button like "ctrl", and pressing 4, 8, 6, or 2 will move the focused window left, up, right or down respectively ?

Actually it's not that difficult to move them around. It looked painful because I moved the window so slowly, and that was because of a small issue (if I moved the cursor too fast, it would ungrab the window). It's fixed now and works pretty well:

Heya Hoffa where have you been? I noticed you stopped posting for over a month recently. Nice to see you back now. Also this looks nice.

I was working for nearly two months in a landfill in Finland. I was doing the evening shift and spent nearly the whole day shoveling waste over there. Didn't have much nor did I spend much time on the computer during that time.

Great !

You know, you can use a cursor.set("grab") <-- or something like that, I don't remember exactly
when grabbing windows ...

it's all on http://wiki.inspired-lua.org/cursor.set

That's great, didn't know about that. Thanks!

Hello,

I started a small project of writing in Lua a GUI library for the TI-Nspire. At the moment there's not much; the windows are clickable and the general floating windows thing works.
As everybody loves screenshots, I give you a screenshot:



Also here's a very early video with some content in one of the windows. I can move windows around and close them also (forgot to show that, but it works).



I'm not even sure if it will actually be that useful when I eventually manage to make something usable, but we'll see about that later.
Well that's about it for the moment.

This was quick, but it's going 1.0 now. I fixed a small bug in the title screen (pressing the up arrow in the menu would make the "pixel" in the game change position) that Scout pointed out. The dot is now controlled using either tab or enter (which also means that doing sharp rises when both are pressed is possible), because the arrow key is useless. I initially wanted the player to be able to hold the key, but because the way the OS deals with key signals is crap, it has no advantage. After all tab or enter are also more comfortable and precise. Now the player can return to the title screen at any moment by pressing ctrl + menu. I made some other minor changes and slightly changed the code. This way I have a stable and clean version to work on later. The new download links are on the website.

Yes, this pleases me, I'm in! I'll start working on my 3D RPG written in Lua right away. o/

You double posted?

But yeah I didn,t notice it, as I didn't see any edit in your other post (and double-posting within 6 hours of the last post is normally not allowed ).

Thanks for the advice, though. I decided to just mash the key over and over, since it's easier that way. By the way I love the game . I planned posting a news soon, but I was busy trying two other calc games as well, which kinda slowed me down, not to mention yesterday I worked 12 hours in a row and had two other news to post X.x

Yeah, sorry my bad. Won't happen again.

by me the saving of the highscore still doesn't work... I am not if i am doing something wrong or if its the calculator(CX) or the game itself.

Try quitting the document using Ctrl + W (which is actually the way you really quit a document), it should then ask to save it.

EDIT: Bug report, I can only press the up arrow once. If I release the key, afterward it never detects anymore arrow key holding down again so after my first jump I fall down and die, no matter if I keep the up arrow pressed.

You mean when holding the key down? If yes, well then it hasn't got much to do with the program itself, but rather the way the whole OS has been made (or whatever that deals with the key presses). It only starts sending the key signals while you hold the button down after a short delay, and there is, as far as I know, no practical and accurate way of knowing when the button is held down. The controls should be quite sensitive, so just try to get used to pressing the button rather than holding it down (at least until I find a nice way to deal with the issue).

Okay new update. First of all I changed that depressive title screen into a less depressive one (long live monochrome displays! ), and now the high score shows up there also. Then I added the "floating walls" to spice up the game, just cruising straight forward in the cave won't be enough anymore. I fine-tuned the settings and cleaned up the chamber of horrors (i.e. source code) into a polished piece of art. Also some slight performance improvements were made. Download link's there now.

Yes it does look good, but it's only decorative.
Of course I prefer games with wonderful graphics rather than text-only games.
The picture is heavier than the code, and I think that's strange... But this is not a big problem.

Well the whole point of graphics is that it's just eye candy. A well-decorated and good-looking dish is always better than the same food in a rusty old barrel.
