@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.

@Aidan-Oxley I used to do that. Might check my post history, some pretty bad things are probably on there. Four times as much on the old forum, I'm betting, too. Then I started programming. I need to invest in Raid library. Anyways, I understand where @Deeeds is coming from, his methods match how mine used to be, and probably still are - very defensive and willing to push back. That being said, no three-man team, all coders mind you, that I know could ever pull this off. Period. I'm rather surprised they made it this far, and root on any and all progress they make. In fact, if I ever manage to get my pea brain to understand C++ or Swift and get a (decent) Mac, I may apply (as a volunteer initially) to help them out. (Speaking of which @Murtaza, are you guys open to third party application development? I'm interested in trying my luck at a windows player, asset manager, screen mirror, game analytics, or anything else that may be of some help if apple and you guys are open to it, or have an API until I get a decent Mac.) I do have to side with the @administrators, though. I'm not quite certain how it descends to it, but the bicker and banter isn't helping anyone. The more time they spend here with fire extinguishers, the less time they can spend there with flashlights and bug zappers. TL;DR: When a community and team are this small, it's a LOT harder to manage and expand the people and the product, and that's before the blood moon rises. Sorry guys, had to have my daily dose of nosy :)

Build, destroy, repeat. (Coming soon)

@Deeeds @Murtaza There is definitely something strange happening here. It only happens when you start to spawn more of these objects with the flash cycle behaviours. Have a look in this project: http://bit.ly/E04bqD Tap the green object to make the blue objects flash (5 times). After you see that work normally, maybe try it again, just in case. Then, tap on the blue objects to spawn duplicates of themselves to the right. Then tap the green box and watch the blue objects fail to cycle properly (specifically, the original ones act a little strange, but only for the first time, any other cycles after that work fine, and only after they spawn duplicates). Tap the green object again, the spawned blue objects will only flash once, while the originals do it all 5 times.

@Hamed will do, to the point you regret saying this ;)

@Thecheater887 ok, I have the newest(2 gen) Pro, so I can spawn a bit more.

@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.

@Murtaza Argh. Got it... Achievement unlocked:

How I usually handle initialization is by creating a receive message behavior and call it initialize. And every time you spawn an object, broadcast initialize. Then on the initialize, get a value from a global count somewhere on your scene like an object on global ui that has an attribute like count. Then set the spawned objects “id” attribute to that count. Then increment that count. Now, the spawned object has an id that you can use before the next time step!

@deeeds Phew, I thought for a moment you forgot Sex on the list but then I read again and catch the Mating ;) :)) Thanks for the article /programming-sucks, such a good read. Glad to see you’re still around tutoring, enjoy!

@deeeds Yes you give some constructive criticism, but sometimes you're not constructive, and you come across as very aggressive and judgemental. You're saying hyperPad or Murtaza and Hamed do nothing for us? What are you saying, that every time Murtaza and Hamed say they're working on the next update, that they are just lying? Lol let's add a new forum post called "Arguments with deeeds" at least then it'll be a forum topic that will actually stay on topic. 😝

I've kind of stopped development on this, because I have other projects. When iTapDevelopment finishes his scroll system, I'll create some basic "apps", so it's not as empty, and release it to the hub. Although this is an improvement from the previous KrystalOS, I think I should wait until object referencing for loops (being able to manipulate a spawned object, e.g. set attribute, set color etc).

@Aidan-Oxley Thanks. I've been learning for a few months now. The biggest limitation to making them better is the lack of solid animation and art apps for the iPad (features and all) and the fact that I don't have a Wacom tablet for my laptop. I'd like to be able to work solely on the iPad, and that is my goal really. Still working on a good workflow (and I can't wait until the Hyperpad animation system at least lets me add multiple frames at once to a Play Animation behavior. I wish I could use an Apple pencil too but I have an older iPad.

@iTap-Development said in Understanding Duplicates of Mirrored Objects...: @Deeeds yes I know.... “conceptual” is the foundation of your vocabulary. As it is for everyone. On Chomskyan enlightenment, come for the political, historical, corporate and media insights, stay for the linguistics. It is, quite literally, more pertinent to programming languages, especially visual ones (and the articulation of programming paradigms, processes and concepts), than you can imagine.

So if you check the description I published the changes. I will also try to upload an example project in the next week or so!

@Jack8680 Exactly!

@Murtaza oh ok thanks
