Hello,
I wanted to know if this is possible. I want to be able to call others sketches back and forth. For instance for simplicity I created 2 sketches when i click on Sketch2 it will show that sketch now in this sketch I have button to show sketch1 but that is not working. I get this message TypeError: fxn is undefined[Show stack]
My goal is to create a mini game type of scenario where the player can choose or I can choose randomly different games the player can play and in these mini games be able to go back to the main screen and select another minigame. Can I do this in openprocessing.org?
here is the code https://www.openprocessing.org/sketch/860688
Even though I use & like that Processing sketch hosting site very much, for more complex sketches, I’d rather choose other hosting options w/ more code flexibility.
There are many approaches we can go with for multi-pick sketch.
But b/c all the sketches you intend to run are using “instance mode”, that makes things much easier.
Every time the current option() is changed(), it calls back runPickedSketch(); which in turn calls destroyMe() for the activeSketch, then calls createMe() using the index - 1 from method value().
You can see it running online at this JS hosting site below:
However, b/c we can’t control the order the multi-tabs are loaded there, the global variable sketches[] defined within the main tab may not exist yet when the other tabs happen to be run 1st.
As a workaround, we can have this statement on each tab: var sketches = window.sketches || [];
It makes sure to create an Array and assign it to sketches[] if 1 isn’t already present in it.
