I made a function to draw an equilateral triangle that I could animate:

function triangle(_x,_y,_size,_angle,_clr)
 for i=0,2 do
  local _offset=.33*i
  local _x1=_x+(cos(_angle+_offset)*_size)
  local _y1=_y+(sin(_angle+_offset)*_size)
 	line(_x1,_y1,_clr+i)
 end	
end

Pico 8 does something weird when I try to draw 2 triangles made out of lines:

I can draw each triangle just fine, but when I put the triangle() function twice it weirdly connects the triangles.

I have no idea why it does that, I could use some help.

here's the full code

function _init()

end

function _update()

end

function _draw()
 cls()
	triangle(64,64,30,0.255,8)
	triangle(64,64,30,0.255+0.5,12)
end

function triangle(_x,_y,_size,_angle,_clr)
 for i=0,2 do
  local _offset=.33*i
  local _x1=_x+(cos(_angle+_offset)*_size)
  local _y1=_y+(sin(_angle+_offset)*_size)
 	line(_x1,_y1,_clr+i)
 end	
end


line() with 2 or 3 arguments uses the end of the last line op as the starting point. You probably want to explicitly specify your start and end by calling line() with 4 or 5 args.
