Dendrite Lua Scripting: How it should work.

This is a simple page meant to be used for documentation-driven design in my Dendrite game engine. This is where I write some simple documentation and use it as a reference for implementing the code.

Linking

To link a script, select an entity in the game editor and click the 'link' dropdown button. Then click the menu item 'lua script'.

If you need to link a script to your scene, simply go to Game > World Settings or use command-shift-W (Mac) cntrl-shift-W (Windows/Linux) to attach a script to the current world.

// Load stdlibs onto lua interpreter instance.
luaL_openlibs(this->L);

int s = luaL_dofile(this->L, file.c_str());

if (s == 0)
{
    // Execute the script.
    s = lua_pcall(L, 0, LUA_MULTRET, 0);
}

beakr

function main()
{
	// We render our game with WebGL or canvas depending on the browser automatically
	// with Pixi.js in our game renderer variable.
	//
	// Our game is 400x400 pixels because it will be made of 25x25 tiles measuring 16x16
	// pixels.
	var gameRenderer = PIXI.autoDetectRenderer(400, 400);
	document.body.appendChild(gameRenderer.view);
