yes, there is!

u should reform every one of the sketches to classes and call each class every time needed. U can add a counter into draw and add 1 to the counter every time draw plays so if frameRate = 30 then draw would play 30 times / sec so counter after 30 sec would be 30 x 30. Then u should write somethink like this:

if (counter > 900) {
if (counter < 1800) {

call sketch 1 }}

if (counter > 1800) {
if (counter < 2700) {

call sketch 2 }}

and so on, ask for further details if it wasnt clear enought

hi
thanks for your input. i tried to programm a counter. it works. but is it not possible to call an external sketch without making a class of it? the problem with the classes is for me as a beginner quite complicated to understand. where i have to write what and how... so i would need some more help if there ist the only way over classes.
what i really want to do is, let a skript running, which uses a camera (and this is quite complex and i think not very easy to chang into a class), and then after a while, i would like to load another script also using the camera. the idea is a projection that should not be boring...
thanks for help.
cheers goldfish
