Inclusion of tutorial wikis sources and resources in Love distribution. about love HOT 5 CLOSED

Then it must at least be a separate distribution, because users will have no use for tutorials supplied with their game.

I really didn't understand your last part of explanation. I was only was suggesting include the wiki source codes as usually done with the ones included in cd/online files of books, magazines and even other disto code language packages. It always speed things than copying/pasting code and download resource files one by one. Can't undestand why needs to be a separate distibution if also already a Demos folder with 5 examples are included (at least in Mac distro). So those code examples have use for users but the tutorials no? Sorry if I didn't reach your point. :S

The point is that a lot of the people that download love are just trying to //run// a game, not write one. not only would they have no use for the tutorials, but they might even be confused by them.

furthermore, its somewhat advantageous to keep the runtime distribution small. Adding the demos is already arguably unnecessary bloat...

Ah, ok, that's fine. So afterall that's is already an internal discussion among devs about that because IMHO don't make really much sense the idea of include the examples but not the tutorials since both are guides/sugestions for dev not for end user/runtime. Anyway seems after reading a bit more the forums u still have a lot of crucial issues regarding how you want to distribute Love. Or you already have a clear wish but unfortunly all that can't work perfect as you wish. :/

Well, since most wiki tutorials have to be modified for the new release //after// the new release, it seems a bit hard to do, and the points as above stand, calling this wontfix.
