Hi,
I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to processing. I've worked through a quite a few tutorials and now I'm working on a reaction test game.
My aim is to have:
My aim is to have:
An "opening screen"
-then any key pressed changes to-
-then any key pressed changes to-
A "ready screen" appears
-Then a mouse click changes to-
-Then a mouse click changes to-
A "steady screen" appears and at the same time, a random timer set to between 3-6 seconds starts counting down.
-when the timer reaches 0-
A "go screen" appears and at the same time a timer begins. The user has to click on the screen as quickly as possible
-when the mouse is clicked: the times stops-
A "result screen" appears displaying the reaction time of the user between the "go screen" appearing and the user clicking the mouse.
Further to this,
It would be good to have the program store the 5 quickest times and display them on the "opening screen".
Here's what I'm working with so far. Each red header is a different tab in processing.

}
void instructText(){
fill(255);
textFont(main_font, 20);
text("CLICK NOW!", width/2, height-12-height/8);
}
}
I would HUGELY appreciate any help at all with this as I've got into a bit of a rabbit hole and keep trying the same things that just don't work. Sorry if it's something really obvious and I've missed something wildly obvious that's been mentioned on another thread.
