Hello,
I am trying to fill the rectangular area with random circles which are growing from certain radius till the boundary of the rectangular area. I have made class initiated in custom code region. Custom class basically is a simple Circle which has functionality of showing and growing.
I am able to animate the circle growing till the edges of the rectangular area. What I’m trying to do is, that to have multiple circles growing from random location till they touch the boundary of rectangular area.
I have random function in class constructor. When I initiate the class it always give me one random value and circle grows from there. I am expecting a random values every time it recomputes. so that new circle will be added to the respected location
Any help would be great!
ps. Attached video link (I am following a tutorial made for processing)
attached gh_file!
double width = 100; double height = 75;
Rectangle3d boundary = new Rectangle3d(Plane.WorldXY, width, height);
List<CPack> circles = new List<CPack>();
circles.Add(cP);
foreach(CPack c in circles)
{
if(reset == true)
{
if(c.edges())
{
c.Growing = false;
}
c.Show();
c.Grow();
B = c.Show();
C = c.X;
}
}
A = boundary;
}
// <Custom additional code>
CPack cP = new CPack(100, 75);
public class CPack
{
public double X;
public double Y;
public int Width;
public int Height;
public double Radius;
public bool Growing = true;
public CPack(int width, int height)
{
Random rnd = new Random();
Width = width;
Height = height;
X = rnd.Next(0, width);
Y = rnd.Next(0, height);
Radius = 1;
}
public Circle Show()
{
return new Circle(new Point3d(X, Y, 0), Radius);
}
public void Grow()
{
if(Growing){
Radius = Radius + 0.1;
}
}
public bool edges()
{
return (X + Radius > Width || X - Radius < 0 || Y + Radius > Height || Y - Radius < 0);
}
}
