TPT in Javascript using Processing.js
-
I had the idea a few weeks ago and started creating a PowderToy clon in HTML5 Canvas with Javascript using processingjs. For those who want to play around or just want to take a look at this small project can do it here: http://tptapi.com/TPTJS/TPTjs.html (Thank to Lockheedmartin for uploading!)
Features:
- GOL Element
- Sand Element
- PowderToy like UI
- Play/Pause
- Bruh size [+] / [-] ( not working as it should )
note that TPTjs is optimized for firefox!

:O no way!
Other than that good job on the implementation. Lots of constants in there (as is proper of a quick & dirty approach however not so much of something you want to keep on maintaining and developing!) and hard-coding which you would be better off to avoid.Edited 3 times by boxmein.

his was more positive, yours are just "this sucks because it has a global variable" and stuff like that. Also you continue on once he replies, boxmein just pointed something out once to actually help and stopped there. -
I could work on making it faster, but I have TPTAPI to work on. Though for anyone who wants to try it out you may go here:

> Also since Processing is basically Java (although it's not meant to be a Java library !) you could use all sorts of object-oriented Java things for various element classes.
interesting, i'll have a look at that.

Thank you for uploading this. unfortunately i hadn't the possibility to do it myself. added the link in my first post.

You could also check out a very-very-old project of mine which was related to that as well (Also Processing by the way, but written in more Java-ish Processing in the sense that I didn't use the Processing IDE nor do I have a .pde)
