Methods

renderer.renderModes

table ren.renderModes()
ren.renderModes(table newModes)

If called with no arguments, returns a table containing the currently activated render modes. If called with a table argument, turns on all the render modes specified in the table. Render modes are typically used to change the way all particles render, display modes set extra added effects.

Print out all current render modes in hex:

for k,v in pairs(ren.renderModes()) do
    print(k,"0x"..bit.tohex(v))
end
>>1, 0x00fff380; 2, 0xff00f270; 3, 0x0400f381

Set the current render mode to a weird form of blob display

ren.renderModes({ren.RENDER_BLOB, ren.RENDER_EFFE})

renderer.displayModes

table ren.displayModes()
ren.displayModes(table newModes)

Works exactly like rennder.renderModes(). If called with no arguments, returns a table containing the currently activated display modes. If called with a table argument, turns on all the display modes specified in the table. Render modes are typically used to change the way all particles render, display modes set extra added effects.

Print out all current display modes in hex:

for k,v in pairs(ren.displayModes()) do
    print(k,"0x"..bit.tohex(v))
end
>>1, 0x00000002; 2, 0x00000010

Set the current display mode to persistent with cracker velocity display

ren.displayModes({ren.DISPLAY_AIRC, ren.DISPLAY_PERS})

renderer.colourMode

number ren.colourMode()
ren.colourMode(number colourMode)

If called with no arguments, returns the current colour mode. If an argument is passed in, sets the colour mode. Available settings are:

COLOUR_BASC
COLOUR_HEAT
COLOUR_GRAD
COLOUR_LIFE
COLOUR_DEFAULT 

renderer.colorMode

number ren.colorMode()
ren.colorMode(number colorMode)

An alias for ren.colourMode.

renderer.decorations

number ren.decorations()
ren.decorations(number decoSetting)

If called with no arguments, returns a 0 or a 1 representing the current deco mode setting. If a number is passed in, turns decorations on or off.

renderer.grid

number ren.grid()
ren.grid(number gridSize)

If called with no arguments, returns the current grid size (normally set with 'g'). Grid sizes range from 0 (no grid) to 9. Each size increases the number of pixels between lines by 4.

If an argument is passed in, sets the current grid size. There are no checks to make sure it is in the valid range, but if negative numbers are passed in it may cause strange behavior.

renderer.debugHUD

number ren.debugHUD()
ren.debugHUD(number debugSetting)

If called with no arguments, returns a 0 or a 1 representing whether the debug HUD (normally set with 'd') is on or off. If a number is passed in, turns the debug HUD on or off.
