MazzSweeper Game

Processing Coding Questions
1

Hey, I am attempting to create a Minesweeper game with a chemistry twist to it on processing. In my code, the if statement to unveil what is hidden under the square (bomb or number) did not work. I attempted to println with Mouse X and MouseY to see what the computer was computing at different positions. Whenever I pressed the mouse anywhere on the screen, the print line provided the text “object is in an invalid state.” Help?!

int square = 50;
int T = 260;
void setup() {
   size(1080, 800);
}

void draw() {
   background(240, 230, 220);
for(int a = 140; a<460; a+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
   rect(80,a,50,50);
}
for(int b = 190; b<460; b+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
   rect(130,b,50,50);
}
for(int c = 290; c<460; c+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
   rect(180,c,50,50);
}
for(int d = 290; d<460; d+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
   rect(230,d,50,50);
}
for(int e = 290; e<460; e+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
   rect(280,e,50,50);
}
for(int f = 290; f<460; f+= 50){
   rectMode(CENTER);
rect(f, 640, square, square);
}
   for(int X = 290; X<460; X+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(530, X, square, square);
   }
   for(int XI = 290; XI<460; XI+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(580, XI, square, square);
   }
   for(int XII = 290; XII<460; XII+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(630, XII, square, square);
   }
   for(int XIII = 290; XIII<460; XIII+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(680, XIII, square, square);
   }
   for(int XIV = 290; XIV<460; XIV+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(730, XIV, square, square);
   }
   for(int XV=290; XV<460; XV+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(780, XV, square, square);
   }
   for(int XVI=290; XVI<460; XVI+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(830, XVI, square, square);
   }
   for(int XVII=190; XVII<460; XVII+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(880, XVII, square, square);
   }
   for(int XVIII = 140; XVIII<460; XVIII+=square){
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(930, XVIII, square, square);
   }
	fill(0);
	ellipse(80,140,30,30);
	noLoop();
	textSize(32);
text("He", 62, 200); 
	fill(0);
	ellipse(130,190,30,30);
	noLoop();
	fill(240,243,242,T);
	rect(80,140,50,50);
	rect(80,190,50,50);
	rect(130,190,50,50);
	noLoop(); 
	println(mouseX, mouseY);
}
void mousePressed() 	{
	if(mouseX > 80 && mouseX < 130 && mouseY > 140 && mouseY <190) {
		T = 0;
	}
		else {
			T = 260;
	}
}

First , do you need the noLoop() at 3 differents places?

Whit this code I get the println(mouseX, mouseY); working

int square = 50;
int T = 260;
void setup() {
  size(1080, 800);
}

void draw() {
  background(240, 230, 220);
  for (int a = 140; a<460; a+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(80, a, 50, 50);
  }
  for (int b = 190; b<460; b+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(130, b, 50, 50);
  }
  for (int c = 290; c<460; c+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(180, c, 50, 50);
  }
  for (int d = 290; d<460; d+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(230, d, 50, 50);
  }
  for (int e = 290; e<460; e+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(280, e, 50, 50);
  }
  for (int f = 290; f<460; f+= 50) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(f, 640, square, square);
  }
  for (int X = 290; X<460; X+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(530, X, square, square);
  }
  for (int XI = 290; XI<460; XI+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(580, XI, square, square);
  }
  for (int XII = 290; XII<460; XII+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(630, XII, square, square);
  }
  for (int XIII = 290; XIII<460; XIII+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(680, XIII, square, square);
  }
  for (int XIV = 290; XIV<460; XIV+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(730, XIV, square, square);
  }
  for (int XV=290; XV<460; XV+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(780, XV, square, square);
  }
  for (int XVI=290; XVI<460; XVI+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(830, XVI, square, square);
  }
  for (int XVII=190; XVII<460; XVII+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(880, XVII, square, square);
  }
  for (int XVIII = 140; XVIII<460; XVIII+=square) {
    rectMode(CENTER);
    rect(930, XVIII, square, square);
  }
  fill(0);
  ellipse(80, 140, 30, 30);
 // noLoop();
  textSize(32);
  text("He", 62, 200);
  fill(0);
  ellipse(130, 190, 30, 30);
 // noLoop();
  fill(240, 243, 242, T);
  rect(80, 140, 50, 50);
  rect(80, 190, 50, 50);
  rect(130, 190, 50, 50);
 // noLoop();
  println(mouseX, mouseY);
}
void mousePressed() {
  if (mouseX > 80 && mouseX < 130 && mouseY > 140 && mouseY <190) {
    T = 0;
  } else {
    T = 260;
  }
}

On openprocessing, I ran the code with the print ln and no matter where I clicked, the line printed was “object is in an invalid state.”

I run this in Processing 3.3 , I dont Know if openprecessing act like 3.3 , but
when you use noloop() , the draw() section is not executed.

I don’t think that is the issue. I contained all of the noLoops by surrounding them with push and pop matrixes. We put the noLoops because without them, the whole periodic table was covered by a black font rather than just the letters “He” in one square to represent two bombs in close proximity.

Nevermind. The code works without the noLoops. Thanks so much for your help!
