2 years ago When you create the map you should list what plugins you are using sti("map",{"box2d"}) replace "box2d" with the actual plugin name. There should be an example of this working on the love2d forum.

EDIT: obviously I didnt install the library correctly? (my version of love is 11.4). perhaps i should rename the question to how do i properly install this library. but maybe there are more truths to be found as to what causes this error(i've been stuck at it for 2 days and i can't figure out why the author would just leave this bug out of the open)
the library in question https://github.com/karai17/Simple-Tiled-Implementation/tree/master/sti
i have it on the same directory as my main.lua with the exact same file structure as in the git
local push = require "push" local fsm = require 'statemachine' local sti = require 'sti' function love.load() push:setupScreen(common_res[3][1], common_res[3][2], my_w, my_h, {fullscreen = false}) map = sti("untitled.lua") local layer = map:addCustomLayer("Sprites", 4); local player for k, object in pairs(map.objects) do if object.name == "player" then player = object break end end love.physics.setMeter(32); world = love.physics.newWorld(0,0) map:box2d_init(world);
