Hi everyone I have a game publish already with Corona my 5th app made. My problem is I’m trying to add something to it. What I’m trying to add is have enemies spawn more frequent after a certain time. This is how I have the code
---Below here is were the enemy spawns between 1 to 5 seconds---
local function enemies5 (event)
local sheet1 = sprite.newSpriteSheet( "fly.png", 60, 36 )
local heroset = sprite.newSpriteSet (sheet1, 1, 8)
local enem5 = sprite.newSprite (heroset)
sprite.add (heroset, "hero", 1, 8, 200, 0)
enem5:prepare("hero")
enem5:play()
enem5.y = math.random(30, 290)
enem5.x = 600
enem5.isFixedRotation = true
physics.addBody (enem5, {bounce=0.6, isSensor = true})
transition.to (enem5, {time = 5000, x=-50})
enem5.hit = "enem5"
enem5.hits = 0
localGroup:insert(enem5)
end
bad5 = timer.performWithDelay(math.random(1000,5000), enemies5, 0)
--- Below here the code is were I cancel timer bad5 after the player surpass dis 10 which dis means distance. So after distance 10 the enemy now spawns every 1 second. ---
local function fast5()
if dis \>= 10 then
timer.cancel (bad5)
bad5a = timer.performWithDelay(1000, enemies5, 0)
end
end
Runtime:addEventListener("enterFrame", fast5)
---Below here the code is when the player life is less than 0 I cancel all timer, and remove listeners, after 1 second the scene is change--
local function dead ()
if Life \<= 0 then
timer.cancel (bad5a)
Runtime:removeEventListener("enterFrame", fast5)
timer.cancel (bad5)
director:changeScene ("over")
end
timer.performWithDelay (1000,fixit,1)
end
end
heli:addEventListener ("collision", dead) My problem with this is the enemies always appear in the over scene. When they appear I get an error saying
…ttas/Desktop/Tiny Lemon Games/Deceased City/game.lua:17: attempt to call method ‘insert’ (a nil value)
stack traceback:
[C]: in function ‘insert’
…ttas/Desktop/Tiny Lemon Games/Deceased City/game.lua:17: in function ‘_listener’
?: in function <?:514>
?: in function <?:215>
This error corresponds to the code above
