Hi,
I'm new to Pico-8, and i've been trying to learn the program using the Pico-8 Pong Tutorial found in the zine.
When I tried to test the paddle, by running it, nothing came up. Am I doing something wrong?
This is what I have so far. Is anything incorrect?
function movepaddle() if btn(0) then padx-=3 elseif btn(1) then padx+=3 end end function _update() movepaddle() end function draw() --clearthescreen rectfill (0,0,128, 128, 3) --drawthepaddle rectfill(padx,pady,padx+padw+padh,15) end |
Hi JaynePea
Watch out for the _ infront of draw.
Note that you'll need to give padx, pady, padw and padh some values at the start of the program before you use them in draw:
padx=20 padw=20 padh=10 pady=100 |
Also, I think you're missing a comma in the rectfill at the bottom. It needs five parameters if you include colour (the top left corner (x,y), the bottom right corner(x,y) and the colour)
rectfill(padx,pady,padx+padw+padh,15) |
Good luck!
Ah, thank you! I'm having issues with the rectfill; even with the piece of code for it you suggested, the paddle still isn't appearing
