hey p5ers

i hope this is in the right forum.

i keep getting this error:

Code:

it seems to happen at random, always on a call to box().  my sketch is 800x600, so 480733 is just about one line outside of that range (it's always some number around that value).  i am using pixels[] to do some fading stuff.  this error isn't happening during my access of that array, though.

does anyone know why this happens + how to stop it?

thanks,
jake

this is as small as i was able to get this sketch:

Code:

int numMarks = 25;
float gz=1.0;

void setup() {
size(800,600,P3D);
framerate(30);
background(255);
	  noFill();
	  stroke(0,0,0,15);
}

void draw() {
	  gz *= 1.5;
	
println("gz " + gz);

scale(gz);
for(int i=0; i<numMarks; i++) {
	 
//pushMatrix();
box(205);
//popMatrix();
}
}
 

seems like it dies when the scale() argument gets too high (16,000 or so, probably way to high).  in my original sketch, however, this crash will still happen eventually even at a scale of 5.

thanks!

sure; it's at:

i hope that helps even though it's pretty messy.

thanks,
