Custom instances

totebo

Hi guys, where am I going wrong here?

I'm trying to create two instances of "Ball" and print each ball's size afterwards. The output now is "big", "big", so the "size" variable is overwritten when I create the second instance.

-- Ball.lua   Ball = Core.class()   local size   function Ball:init( _size ) size = _size end   function Ball:getSize() return size end

-- Main.lua   local balls = {}   local ball1 = Ball.new( "small" ) table.insert( balls, ball1 )   local ball2 = Ball.new( "big" ) table.insert( balls, ball2 )   for i=1, #balls do print( balls[i]:getSize() ) end

Isn't it marvellous how a public post sharpens the mind? This change to Ball.lua works:

-- Ball.lua   Ball = Core.class()   function Ball:init( _size ) self.size = _size end   function Ball:getSize() return self.size end

@totebo: You beat me to it. I had just posted exactly the same thing.
But because it is impossible to delete a posy I edited it instead lol

Seems such a shame to " delete a posy"
