Wow, it's the 21st century version of the Ronco veg-o-matic slicer/dicer!

The quantity and quality of code is impressive. Nice work s_noonan!

Thanks.

Suggestion: As you know, it's never a good idea to require users to enter edit mode and change variable values in order to modify how a scene operates. It's better to provide simple, convenient controls that allow users to adjust those values while the simulation is running.

Yeah, sure, whatever.

I'm glad that you are happy and excited about making those changes I suggested.

Anyhow, I like the way you did it, and it is much more like a finished product now, IMHO. Nice work.

Thanks.

Everything seems to work as expected except for the "randomColor" checkbox. Sometimes when I click on it nothing happens until I click on it a second time. There is a delay (probably from computer lag) that seems to be happening. My computer is not exactly a high-speed gaming computer, but on the other hand it's not old and sluggish (like me).

Make sure Options|Autosave and Options|'Automatically check for updates' are unchecked. Click slower. I can reliably click 20 times in 20 seconds on my 11 year old PC. You can change "_c > 11" to "_c > 5" in the checkbox update method. "_c > 11" is a compromise between responsiveness and lag for any GUI in any scene. I'm not ready to start tuning it for each GUI in each scene, but I will do it for this scene since there are only (8) instances of "_c > 11".

Whatever you did in your last update fixed the issue that I mentioned. Overall the controls are much more responsive. Nice!

Thanks for the feedback.
