Need a little help with Simon before I move on. So far it only plays a sequence and you have to copy but it wont keep track of what colors you press, only the amount of presses. The issue is the first time I play when the page loads it works, but if I restart or power off and back on again it will always skip the second turn. I have the console logging the turn count and you will see it in action. I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Please help!
Of course there are others problems but at the moment i’ve found this part:
//run computer sequence
function runSeq() {
if (!power)
return;
$("#display").html(index + 1);
var $next = $(seq[index]);
$next.addClass("active");
playSounds($next);
timeout = setTimeout(function() {
$next.removeClass("active");
index++;
if (index >= turn) {
clearTimeout(timeout);
playerTurn = true;
player = [];
playerTry();
} else {
setTimeout(runSeq, 200);
clearTimeout(runSeq);
}
}, 800);
}
Especially in:
setTimeout(runSeq, 200);
clearTimeout(runSeq);
You make runSeq
recursive, and every time init a new process, and clearTimeout ()
need a timeoutId
not a function. WindowTimers.clearTimeout
