color array with random hold time
hi!
having this Dan’s expression (used here https://forums.creativecow.net/thread/227/3939)
period = 2
holdTime = 0.5;seed = Math.floor(time/period);
t = time%period
seedRandom(seed,true);
if ( random() > .5 && t < holdTime) 100 else 0;
I’m trying to adapt it so instead of the 100 else 0, it goes thru an array of colors like this, but not sure how to do that
colors = [[255,205,45,255]/255,[220,20,60,255]/255,[30,144,255,255]/255,];any help will be welcome, thanks!!

I’m having a little trouble picturing exactly how you want this to work. Maybe you could describe it a little more.

oh! sorry for the misinfo!
basically I was trying to achieve getting a random color from an array, and make it hold a few seconds, then jump to another color in the array, and so on -
there are a lot of better ways to do this, but this may work :
colors = [[255,205,45,255]/255,[220,20,60,255]/255,[30,144,255,255]/255,];
period = 2;
holdTime = 0.5;
seed = Math.floor(time/period);
t = time%periodseedRandom(seed,true);
cc =Math.floor(random(colors.length));
if ( random() > .5 && t < holdTime)
id = cc;
else
id = 0;
colors[id]; -
Something like this should work:
colors = [[255,205,45,255]/255,[220,20,60,255]/255,[30,144,255,255]/255,];
period = 3;
seed = Math.floor(time/period);
seedRandom(seed,true);
idx = Math.floor(random(colors.length));
colors[idx]Dan
