I am quite new to p5 and would need some advice.
Is it possible to trigger an action only every few seconds? For example: After two seconds i++;
If I use draw() or an own loop function it just goes way to fast.
Thanks a lot. Max
you can make use of setInterval(function, delay) as shown below:
let counter = 0;
function increment() {
counter++;
}
function setup() {
createCanvas(400, 400);
setInterval(increment, 2000); // 2000 ms = every 2 seconds
fill(0);
}
function draw() {
background(220);
text(counter, 100, 100);
}
I have set up an Example Sketch for you here.
