XY Pad Modulation

Lindon

Not sure exactly what you are trying to do but wouldnt this work?

reg dirSet = 0.1;
chaosXDrift.setTimerCallback(function()
{   
    if (Slider_MovementXInvisible.getValue() < 0.1)
    {
        dirSet = 0.1;
    }
     if (Slider_MovementXInvisible.getValue() > chaosXTarget)
    {
        dirSet = -0.1;
    }
    Slider_MovementXInvisible.setValue(Slider_MovementXInvisible.getValue() + dirSet);
    Panel_MovementXYPad.repaint();
});

@Lindon Yeh that does the same thing as my current script, the idea is:

Engine sets a "destination" XY coord
Timer checks if X and Y position are equal to, less than or greater than the destination
Timer either makes a new destination coord, adds 0.01 or subtracts 0.01 respectively

It's like the timer isn't calling the new coordinate thing, even though i have console.print printing out both values and they do in fact match...

Every time they both equal 0.86, it should "reroll" the target, but it's not, could that have something to do with deferred callbacks or something? Or variable scope?

Is there a way to reduce the number of decimal points from Math.random() ?

Ok got it working :) I had to change all of my values to integers since the rounding was causing some issues

hey @iamlamprey do you recall what number range you used when you did this? im trying to make it work with knobs that go from 0.0 - 1.0. I changed the knob to have a range of 0-100 but it reads 1000% instead lol. i know that im doing something wrong..

@Adam_G I don't remember off heart but the source for the XY pad I used is here:

@iamlamprey thanks for replying. checking that out and looks like they used decimals too. am i reading that right?

Movement_Xpos = Math.range(Slider_MovementXInvisible.getValue() / 100, 0.03, 0.97);

@Adam_G hmm, i just opened the project and apparently the sliders that control the XY pad go from 0.0 to 100.0, the actual XY values i believe are 0.0 - 1.0

it's been a while since I've opened this project so its a bit hazy sorry, been working on other things

@iamlamprey thats definitely a hint haha, thanks again :) ill keep trying

I made a couple of videos all about XY pads. Currently they're only available to Patrons.
