Re: how to get the probe display in jheatbugs to work?

[Tim Howe]

Thanks to Methot, Alex, AND Russell. I'll have to read the FAQ as soon as I finish reading the SUG, the SRG, simple*.java, and jheatbugs!

 

I've put this line into the constructor of the version of HeatbugObserverSwarm.java that I will be contributing:

 

    System.out.println ("\nIn each field you change in the probe display, press Enter.\n");

 

- Tim

Hey!  You asked something I know!  As the lowest common denominator I actually know this.  You change the number and have to hit return.  Otherwise the value you type is ignored.

Can someone tell me how to get the probe display in jheatbugs to work?

When I run jheatbugs-2.1 and alter any of the displayed values, my changes are ignored. For example, if I change numBugs from 100 to 25, then click Start or Next, the program will write 100 back into the probe display and will still create 100 bugs.

 

The only thing on the probe display that seems to work is clicking on toggleRandomizedOrder.

Thanks.
