Mesh Blocks in Panther

How do I work with the mesh blocks in Panther?

I'm really in the dark... A Panther mesh tutorial would be nice!

Re: Mesh Blocks in Panther

It's the same. Mesh is already activated, you can use "Host mesh" to host mesh, "Join mesh" to join mesh, and "Mesh IP address" to get the IP.

The rest is the same.

Re: Mesh Blocks in Panther

I am writing a tutorial for all the new blocks as I type. It includes screenshots, sample scripts and excercises. I didn't realise how few people knew hot to use some of our new features  hmm

Re: Mesh Blocks in Panther

However, seeing as it's not going to be out for a while, here's a rundown of the file blocks.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Mesh: A method of joining two projects between two computers over the internet. Once you connect them, you can share varaibles and broadcasts between them (variables in project 1 will appear in the ([slider] sensor value) block in the dropdown.

IP address: Each computer has it's own "name" made of several numbers, e.g 192.168.1.4  . This address can be used to connect to the other project.

Host: the project that is hosting the mesh does not need the IP address of the other project(s) connected to it.

Client: the client project(s) connect to the host using its IP address.
_______________________________________
blocks:
[host mesh] starts your project as a hosting project.

[join mesh [ ]] Joins to an existing mesh. (the IP goes into the text box)

[leave mesh] Disconnects you from mesh

(mesh IP) reports your computer's IP address.
_________________________________________________________________

File blocks:
file blocks let you read and write to files. Generally it is used to save things into a .txt file such as notepad, but can write to .EXE files, rich text documents and more.

you need to type in the FULL PATH to access a file.

if you have a text file called test, you would have to type out the address like so:

C:\program files\documents and settings\my documents\test.txt

Don't forget the file type at the end (.txt)
