Got A Question With My Snake

Jolkedejonge

I got a question for you im trying to learn Javascript and im using processing and i Make A game calls Snake I try to add a few things like a pause button. It works almost the only thing is that, when I pause the length of mine snake is reseted to 1. I Created a var pause = false; It wil be set to true if you press the pause button

    this.death = function() {
        if (!pause) {
          for (var i = 0; i < this.tail.length; i++) {
            var pos = this.tail[i];
            var d = dist(this.x, this.y, pos.x, pos.y);
            if (d < 1) {
              console.log('starting over');
              this.total = 0;
              this.tail = [];
              hit.play()
          }
        }
       }
    }

Im Sorry But This Does Not work when i use it in my loop like this it won't work function keyPressed() { if (pause == true) { noLoop(); } if (!pause) { if (keyCode === UP_ARROW) { s.dir(0, -1); } else if (keyCode === DOWN_ARROW) { s.dir(0, 1); } if (keyCode === LEFT_ARROW) { s.dir(-1, 0); } else if (keyCode === RIGHT_ARROW) { s.dir(1, 0); } } }

 function keyPressed() {
  if (pause == true) {
    noLoop();
  }
     if (!pause) {
       if (keyCode === UP_ARROW) {
        s.dir(0, -1);
    } else if (keyCode === DOWN_ARROW) {
        s.dir(0, 1);
    }
      if (keyCode === LEFT_ARROW) {
        s.dir(-1, 0);
    } else if (keyCode === RIGHT_ARROW) {
        s.dir(1, 0);
      }
    }
  }

But it Still not Works

  this.death = function() {
     if (pause == true) {
       noLoop();
     } 
   for (var i = 0; i < this.tail.length; i++) {
        var pos = this.tail[i];
        var d = dist(this.x, this.y, pos.x, pos.y);
        if (d < 1) {
          console.log('starting over');
          this.total = 0;
          this.tail = [];
          hit.play()
      }
    }
   }

So, with this last comment, are you sharing your solution or it is not working yet?

its not Working Yet

GoToLoop

let paused;

function keyPressed() {
  if (key == 'P')  (paused ^= true)? noLoop() : loop();
}

What Do You main with The 'P'

GoToLoop

You need to choose some key(s) to toggle the paused state.
In my own sample above I've picked 'P' for that action. ;;)

kfrajer

P as in your keyboard, after you hit the letter P. What Goto is doing there is to assign a value to pause and then, based on this value, he calls noLoop() or loop().

Oh Thank you ill try

Jolkedejonge

I might Now What the problems is if (d < 1) { d = dist and when my pause is the direction will be set dir(0, 0) but i guess that the game thing that the dis = 0 if somebody knows how to fix i tryed much
