@CAnesia I'll have to have a little think. This isn't where I was going with this. I was trying to introduce a range of complimentary ideas and aspects of programming in a subtle, inconspicuous manner, then reveal what they are later. Perhaps that's loading to much obscurity and layering needless complexity to the concepts and ideas, and distracting from a potentially cleaner, more focused, pointed narrative.

@iTap-Development said in Understanding Sequence of Behaviours: In Search of Speed!: I was talking about box containers. Yeah sorry, not a complete example. I thought it would be enough. But the point was that box containers make it easy to have unrelated outputs put into the multiply input. Perhaps I'm very dense. I don't see how your example demonstrates that.

@Jack8680 Now that's weird. I wonder what is causing that.

@GameCRAZY That's an overview of game creation. I'm after an overview of using hyperPad for game creation.

@Deeeds Thank you so much! That is very helpful!

@Jack8680 I think I've grokked what you're doing. Each object stores its original position in an Attribute, each run through the loop this is gotten and used for the calculation. I've believed in arrays, stuffed them full of each objects' original positions and hoped for the For Each loop to go through in the same order each time, since I'm using the index to grab those original positions, they aren't tied to their original object. This will probably lead to catastrophe at some point, when I'll need to use your approach.

@Aidan-Oxley Yes. Tried this. No. What's the "right" way to import a .png sequence for frame animation in hyperPad?

@Deeeds behaviours with multiple tags selected operate on each object in either tag, without duplication; so yes, a logical OR.

@Deeeds use a behavior on/off and type in the name of the for each. You should be able to see what object it is under then. I think that’s all the farther you can narrow it down.

@iTap-Development No, I'm leaving this here as a record. And finishing on this matter. I've said my piece(s) in response to the trials of nonsense. Of which I'm more than a little guilty for perpetuating by replying etc. I have no interest in discussing anything privately with you. I consider these matters closed. Finally. I consider myself to have been rather foolish for having wasted time in this way. It's only yesterday that @hamed let me know that some of the participants in this forum are children. Having dealt with many professional programmers, from all around the world, in projects of various sizes, there are some similarities between the child-like enthusiasm for being "right" and adult programmers' stubborn, determined and resolute isolation from reality and common sense. I'll leave you all with one piece of advice and an apology: If you can do anything other than coding with the majority of your life, do that. You'll have a far happier and more interesting life. I apologise for any of the things I might have wrote that hurt or injured, caused confusion or otherwise put you (or anyone else) in a state of mind you weren't comfortable with.

@iTap-Development @Aidan-Oxley Forest for the Trees. Trees for the Wood. I'm suggesting a better UI and UX that's more consistent, easier to grok and, most importantly, discoverable. The current system requires rote learning and is a peculiar repurposing of an iterator within an iterator that no longer iterates because it's in an iterator. But it's not as bad as how the If Else is created, I'll grant you that!

@Aidan-Oxley cool!

@Deeeds Nope. Only way I can think of is using the highlight tool, copying everything in one layer, making a new layer and then pasting lol.

@Deeeds haha I guess I’ve asked before! LOL

Maybe one day. But right now no mac version is planned. If apple changes things and requires a major rewrite we'll do it in a way where it's more likely to be cross platform. But for the time being we're focusing on making the iOS experience better.

@Deeeds Tags delete themselves automatically when absolutely no objects or behaviours have them selected.

@Deeeds it’s saving a backup...is you internet slow or something?

No broadcasting is still much faster. You can avoid timers and delays and collision take multiple time steps

@Deeeds I think @Aidan-Oxley is right, changes are saved as you build. As for “save and quite” it is saving a backup of the project(only if automatic backups is on). Go to the ‘my backups’ page to restore any version. I think they should add an option to leave the project without a backup happening though.
