Weird memory usage

robotman2412

i'm making a Universal Turing machine emulator (google it).

it uses ever increasing amounts of memory, not much more to say.

it obviously shouldn't

if you look in the main file there is a PGraphics called p.

when i use this to animate writing, the memory usage goes skyhigh, eventually chrashing.

i can't use it for any longer than three minutes like this.

do i have to prerender all the animations is setup?

until a solution is found, i will prerender it in setup

all i'm trying to solve is the amount of memory my method uses not how to do it

unrelated, but... the overwriting symbol works fine, but regular text doesn't...

as in, during the animation, the symbol that overwrites the current one

another temporary fix, i found for some reason P2D was the problem
