It's not the first time I'm having issues using Mesh Lib from Lee Byron. When there is a strange value of x or y, Voronoi throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
I was able to detect when exception occurs that one particle had x value of 1.3E-44
What kind of float number is that? Is that a way to convert it back to float, or to check if it's greater/lesser than one value and constrain it before sending it to Voronoi?
Thanks!

Hey, if you were able to read it then I will think you could compare it. That number if very small (1E-44), caused by internal round errors and it is zero by definition (unless you are working with string theory in the domain of physics). I suggest before you send it to Voronoi (is it a lib?), you could set it to a value of zero.
I hope this helps,

a very small one! the E denotes engineering notation where the number after the value is the mantissa. that is 1.3 x 10 to the power of -44.

is IS still a float. how it's displayed changes when it's tiny like that, but the number is still a float.
i'm not sure what your problem is though, the ArrayIndexOutOfBounds, without seeing more code.
Thank you, guys
Yes, I think this is not the problem...
Anyway, I'm filtering this values by multiplying by 1000, converting to int and dividing by 1000.0
But the error still occurs... I checked all the points values, and I think the real problem is when a particle is exactly in the same X Y position than another.
Yes, that was it. Solved the problem by checking if particles has same position, and moving one of them by a pixel.
