##Global This is a special object that can be accessed with the name "global". You cannot spawn it and you cannot access it's properties, but you can call methods on it. #####Methods global:swapCollision( )
global:changeMap( string )
global:playMusic( name, volume) )
global:playSound( name[, volume] )

##Player #####Methods activator:multiplyVelocity( x, y )
activator:addVelocity( x, y )
activator:setVelocity( x, y )
activator:applyImpulse( x, y )
activator:setFriction( number ) activator:teleportTo( object )

##Self You can use the self keyword.

##Everything Else #####Events: onSpawn #####Methods setVelocity( x, y )
setVisible( boolean )
setFrozen( boolean )
teleportTo( object )
destroy( )

##PhysBox A box that's used for testing and stuff. Everything is secretly derived from it for no good reason. #####Attributes: collisiongroup : shared / blue / green #####Events: onSpawn #####Methods setVelocity( x, y )
setVisible( boolean ) setFrozen( boolean )
teleportTo( object )
teleportTo( object )
destroy( )

##Toggle Toggles a button on and off. #####Events: onToggle onPress onRelease

##Button Activates only when player is touching button #####Events: onPress onRelease

##Trigger A rectangle that activates then the player enters. #####Attributes: filter : PLAYER, PHYSBOX, TILE #####Events: onTrigger : will trigger only when the object starts touching it onBothPlayers onTriggerEnd onBothPlayersEnd onTouching : will trigger every second an object is touching it.

##Camera Moves the camera to a position on the map. #####Methods setActivated( boolean )

##Timer #####Attributes: time : the time it takes for the timer to end #####Methods start( ) #####Events onEnd

##Text Draws a text. #####Attributes: string : the text you want to put here #####Methods type( ) types out the text you put in setString( string ) useful for dialogue

##Trampoline #####Attributes: power : how much power it should push the player by
goal : name of a goal. it could be anything

##Prop #####Attributes: sprite : sprite relative to the sprite folder
spritewidth : sprite width
spriteheight : sprite height
#####Methods loopAnimation( y, xfrom, xto, speed )
playAnimation( y, xfrom, xto, duration )

##Slider It constraints an object to move only in one axis. It disables angle movement though. #####Attributes: angle : angle of the axis the object can move in object : name of the object to constrain

##Weld Glues two objects together Make sure you set the property "phystype" to "dynamic" before using this, or else the object might not move! #####Attributes: object1 : name of the object to constrain object2 : name of the second object to constrain

spacesloth's Issues

Public Repository?

I'm curious to know if anyone would object to opening the repository in order to show off our work...or if we should keep this a private repository.
Since this game is still in its early stages, it's a good idea to be thinking about whether this game will be open source or possibly commercial at any point (I'm thinking in the latter case we'd probably make a different but similar game, but I thought I'd ask). I remember Gavin wanted to be able to boast the use of FOSS in the game -- we ought to decide whether we want to refine that as well (since the music and some sprites were produced using commercial software) by making more assets using only free or open source tools.
Thoughts?
