DistanceJoint:setDamping Removed in LÖVE 0.8.0 It has been replaced with DistanceJoint:setDampingRatio. Sets the damping ratio. Function Synopsis DistanceJoint:setDamping( ratio ) Arguments number ratio The damping ratio. Returns Nothing. See Also DistanceJoint

ChainShape:getNextVertex Available since LÖVE 0.10.2 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Gets the vertex that establishes a connection to the next shape. Setting next and previous ChainShape vertices can help prevent unwanted collisions when a flat shape slides along the edge and moves over to the new shape. Function Synopsis x, y = ChainShape:getNextVertex( ) Arguments None. Returns number x (nil) The x-component of the vertex, or nil if ChainShape:setNextVertex hasn't

love.math.triangulate Available since LÖVE 0.9.0 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Decomposes a simple convex or concave polygon into triangles. Function Synopsis triangles = love.math.triangulate( polygon ) Arguments table polygon Polygon to triangulate. Must not intersect itself. Returns table triangles List of triangles the polygon is composed of, in the form of {{x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3}, {x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3}, ...}. Function Synopsis triangles = love.math.tr

enet.peer:round trip time Returns or sets the current round trip time (i.e. ping). If value is nil the current value of the peer is returned. Otherwise the round trip time is set to the specified value and returned. ENet performs some filtering on the round trip times and it takes some time until the parameters are accurate. To speed it up, set the last round trip time to an accurate guess. Function Synopsis peer:round_trip_time() Arguments None. Returns number roundtriptime The peer's c
