CODAP Missing Projectile Data #337

Open KatieWoe opened 2 weeks ago

KatieWoe commented 2 weeks ago

Device Dell OS Win 11 Browser Chrome Problem Description For https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/1096 When a large number of projectiles have been launched, it is possible that some of them won't be picked up by CODAP. This does not happen every time, and so may be related to performance/speed/memory.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. In Codap, go to the sim's first screen
  2. Set sim speed to fast, and firing to continuous
  3. Fire all the projectiles (500)
  4. Once the shots are done, erase them and repeat
  5. You should end this with 1000 data points, but some may not appear

Can be very bad in https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/1099 when sample sizes are large. veryoff
