How to restart the simulation, is there any way to access the simulation()? #10

Closed thisisvaze closed 5 years ago

thisisvaze commented 5 years ago

I need to restart the simulation at a certain point of time, it would be of great help if anyone could help me with that. Thanks in advance.

@aadityavaze to reset the nodes position and restart the simulation over, you just have to pass a fresh data set to .graphData(<new data>). Just make sure you use a fresh array for nodes that have not been annotated with the x, y and z attributes, added by the running simulation.

Thanks for your answer, actually I wanted to ask if I could set alpha=1, basically, I want to restart the custom forces that I've implemented on the same set of nodes.

Refeeding the data causes alpha to be reset to 1. So you could simply do this, to preserve the nodes coordinates:

myGraph.graphData(myGraph.graphData())

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot.
