Example usage of the playlist functionality

This demonstrates how to: 1. Set playlist property on boxes 2. Set pauseList property to control frame delays 3. Execute boxes in playlist order

Example usage in Field4:

Create some boxes and set their playlist order val box1 = box("box1") box1.playlist = 1.0 box1.code = """ println("Box 1 executing") """

val box2 = box("box2") box2.playlist = 2.0 box2.pauseList = 2.0 // Wait 2 frames before advancing to the next box box2.code = """ println("Box 2 executing") """

val box3 = box("box3") box3.playlist = 3.0 box3.code = """ println("Box 3 executing") """

Execute all boxes in playlist order root.runPlaylist()

This will, for each box in playlist order: call begin(), then wait pauseList frames (default 1) before advancing. box2 waits 2 frames; box1/box3 wait 1.

You can also find boxes with playlist property: val playlistBoxes = root.findBoxesWithPlaylist() playlistBoxes.forEach { box -> println("${box.name} has playlist=${box.playlist}") }
