Row related functions - DPS2004/Doctor-s-Notepad GitHub Wiki

The functions on this page are available by loading the row.lua extension. It is loaded by default.

level:getrow(index)

Returns the row at index index in the form of an object with functions to modify values of it.

Example:

mycoolrow = level:getrow(0) -- Get the first row in the level.
-- Now you can do stuff with it, such as
mycoolrow:movex(1, 75, 1, 'Linear')
-- to move the first row in the level.
-- The function used above will be explained later.

row:setroom(beat, room)

Moves the row into the room room at beat beat. Note that room is 0-indexed.

Example:

mycoolrow:setroom(2, 1) -- at beat 2 mycoolrow will be moved into room 1 (second room),
mycoolrow:setroom(6, 0) -- and at beat 6 it will be moved into room 0.
