Array cell access [help needed].

[KarateBrot]

Yes, immibis was right. This is cause of for-loop limit.
Can you show me some examples of using your for-function?

okay sorry i thought you mean the number of cells you can use in an array like you said above

@immibis:
what's the "max" variable for?

[savask]

You wasn't far from the truth
I "couldn't use" more than 50 cells, because I couldn't make more than 50 cells in the loop

[KarateBrot]

oh that explains a lot

[savask]

Some questions
Should I write this function in the console?
Will it be saved in the phz file?

[KarateBrot]

yes if you write any variable/function with "scene.my." in front of it it will be saved to your .phz file. and yes, functions normally are typed into the console

[savask]

Ok, thanks!
Now we should wait for immibis answer...

[immibis]

Just use Scene.my.for2 instead of for. For example, instead of:

Code: Select all

for(1000, (i)=>{do some stuff})


write

Code: Select all

Scene.my.for2(1000, (i)=>{do some stuff})


[savask]

Thank you!
It is very good that your function use the same syntax as default for-loop

[KarateBrot]

the for2 function is nice and works but whenever i use scene.my.for2 in complex functions it doesn't work. algodoo freezes and windows has to force it to close. any ideas?

[savask]

It works fine for me, but may be my scripts isn't so complex as yours.

[KarateBrot]

i don't know what's wrong. maybe it's because i have a spawn script in the for2 function (which should normally work)

[savask]

Can you show the script?

[KarateBrot]

Code: Select all

Scene.my.ln = (x) => { (x^0.001 - 1) / 0.001 };

scene.my.physicsstuff = (g,m,v,a,d,x) => { big physics formula here };

scene.my.q = (x) =>
{
   n := math.tofloat(x);
   scene.my.for2(n, (i)=> {
      scene.addcircle({
         radius := 0.005;
         color := [1,1,1,1];
         pos := [i/10, scene.my.physicsstuff(9.8,2,10,math.pi/4,2.5,i/10)]
      })
   })
};


With the normal for function it works but with the for2 function Algodoo crashes. It's weird.

[savask]

I tried a spawn script in for2-loop and it works.

[KarateBrot]

i know. normally it works.

[savask]

But you said that Algodoo crashes, didn't you?

[KarateBrot]

yes normally it works but this code above doesn't work. it only works with the normal for function.

[savask]

May be the problem with the n variable?

[KarateBrot]

Thanks, that's the error. I tested it with a simple code but the for2 function can't handle it with specific values

Code: Select all

Scene.my.test = (x) => { scene.my.for2(x, (i)=>{ print ((i+1) + " text lines") }) };


Not working
Scene.my.test(0)
Scene.my.test(1)

If you choose a value above 1 it's working. I tested it with scene.my.value(2), scene.my.value(10), scene.my.value(100) and scene.my.value(1000). They all work. Weird...
I'll write a PM to immibis.

[EDIT]
If you make x a float value it only works with scene.my.test(2). All other values don't work.

Code: Select all

Scene.my.test = (x) =>
{
   n := math.tofloat(x);
   scene.my.for2(n, (i)=>{ print ((i+1) + " text lines") })
};


[savask]

Yes, really, it don't work with 0 and 1.
So I have to use default "for" function

[KarateBrot]

I already let immibis know about this bug. I wrote a PM. Let's wait.

[savask]

Ok, I wish he will fix it.

[immibis]

I've edited my original post here to the "Thyme math functions" thread: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=371&p=8695#p8695

[savask]

Ok, thanks!

[KarateBrot]

Very good! Now it's awesome
