    @Deeeds that’s easy to set up with a couple IF’S and a value.

      @iTap-Development I find C Pointers easier to comprehend and use than other forms of reference. But it's not what I'd suggest others do.

          @iTap-Development

          . I'm doing it about a dozen times. About the 13th time I thought...

          "I've been meaning to make a point that booleans would be a time saver..." and hopped into the forum where comments and feedback are asked for... here...

          And dropped this as a feature request.

          I'd like them for me, and I think everyone else would benefit from them, too.

          And they're so common to programming conventions and processes that it baffles me they're not in hyperPad already.

            @iTap-Development Further, if you're at all confused about my feature requests, they generally fall into two categories:

            WTF? Why doesn't hyperPad have this, it's so obviously needed and normal?

            or

            I think Visual Programming needs this so it's looks less like a bowl of spaghetti thrown at a wall


            Feature requests are things I've probably already worked around... except the lack of proper physics editor. That's a nightmare, a killer of dreams.

              @Deeeds But... I like bowls of spaghetti! You can show them to your friends and confuse them.

              Lol don’t worry this is not how I make stuff. This happened because after I added a bunch of behaviours NEATLY hyperPad crashed, saving the behaviours and their connections but not the positions I put them in.

                  @Aidan-Oxley btw, very happy to see this as it's something I figured out as an organising technique, and have been using EVERYWHERE...

                        @Aidan-Oxley I really don't know what to say.

                        I'm impressed. Massively. But my mouth is agape and my eyes boggled, brain cells feel like dust in the wind whilst looking at this. Staggering.

                                  @Deeeds Lol idk how 3D works, I got the formulas off the internet and incorporated into hyperPad. One day I hope to understand better how and why they actually work.

                                    @Aidan-Oxley I don't know much about 3D either.

                                    Perhaps this is the correct lighting model for your cubes:

                                      I definitely agree. Booleans are pretty much used in every programming language, and it’s much cleaner than checking (if someLabel == “true”).

                                      I also think it would help with visualisation, as in a lot of my code I use, for example, bool isCool, so I can use it in an if statement like “if(isCool) { /* Person is cool */ }”

                                        @Kamdroid Maybe, but it probably doesn’t have to be high priority since getting labels works fine. If you don’t like getting labels then use Attributes or Box Containers (better idea than using labels anyway). I don’t know how they work, but I guess they would make things easier, but I’ve never had a problem with the way it already works.
