Tidal

Tidal loads and renders Tiled maps. Requires LÖVE

Currently compatible with Tiled 0.10.0

This was a fork of Kadoba's Advanced Tiled Loader. The majority of the code has been rewritten from the ground up. Latest update is found on the master branch.

Supports every known feature except for the following:

Specifying draw order

Stable release: v0.10.2

Please check out the wiki for help.

Example:

tidal          = require 'src'
map            = tidal.load('map.tmx')
map.batch_draw = true -- Enable spritebatches (default)

layer = map.layerOrder[1]  -- Get lowest layer
layer.opacity      = 0.5   -- Set layer transparency
layer.ox, layer.oy = 5,5   -- Offset layer by these many pixels
layer.visible      = true  -- Set layer visibility
tile = layer:get(tx,ty)    -- Return tile at tx,ty

gid  = 1
tile = map.tiles[gid]             -- Get tile
print(tile.properties.myproperty) -- Get set property in Tiled

function love.update(dt)
	map:update(dt) -- For animating tiles
end

function love.draw()
	map:draw(x,y)
end

tidal's Issues

Error when running example: attempt to call method 'bind' (a nil value)

I'm attempting to play with Tidal since it appears that the Advanced Tiled Loader was never updated for the current release of the LOVE framework.

However, when I run the example main.lua file in the master branch I get the following error:

src/TileLayer.lua:242: attempt to call method 'bind' (a nill value)

The specific line it's triggering on is in

main.lua: 120: in function 'draw'

Relevant code for a simplified example that triggers the same stack trace:

function love.load()
    tidal = require 'Tidal'

    map = tidal.load('maps/tilemap.tmx')

    x,y = 0,0
end

function love.update(dt)
    if map then
        map:update(dt)
    end
end

function love.draw()
    -- error occurs on the next line.
    map:draw(x,y)

end

Since this is also happening in the example I assume I'm not doing something wrong, but ...

Running the current version of LOVE on Windows.
