Loop in algodoo

[Kilinich]

That recursion "for" loop with limit of 40 levels is real pain in the back!
Algodoo scripts need some "normal" loops!

i ended up crashing algodoo when i made a function that calls itself. it's there for a reason.
EDIT: by adding limiters, i could make a recursive function to work over the for function's 48 operation limit.























bad news: it can work up to 49 times.

using the console and a dirtier function, i got 99 circles. but that would require the function not to take arguments at all, which smashes down the usability.

Eh? Thar be limits? Sounds stupid…

I agree, we need real advanced programming constructions here people!

[Rideg]

support! I need to make different objects with the same code ( except for the "(x)=>" thing ) to make big loops, or make multiple loops in ONE object.

Limitless loops <====

But you have to watch out with spawning. Otherwise you spawn +inf circles or something.
But for normal use I support, loops have to be limitless.

[Rideg]

maybe a patch that won't allow +inf to be inserted as a number.

[Matten]

But +inf could be usefull for other things. And I think it just should be possible and you have to use it good.

We're talking about the LOOPS
