understanding the code a little

[AlenToma]

Hi, I am looking at your code and trying to understand how and where you convert the mp3 file to a readable notes and convert them to balls

could you please try and explain this.

I Opened an issue on stackoverflow about this, it would be great help if you could have a little time to explain this.

Hey Alen!
We would have loved to do something like that back when we created this, but to be honest, it would've been way to complex for this project. We hacked this game together for a university project, and only had like four days of time. The balls are just generated randomly, with no real correlation to the music. You can find the spawn logic here:

Rhythm-Tapper/app/src/main/java/sma/rhythmtapper/game/GameScreen.java

Lines 435 to 465 in 2c6afa9

	private void spawnBalls() {
	float randFloat = _rand.nextFloat();
	final int ballY = BALL_INITIAL_Y;
	int ballX = _gameWidth / 3 / 2;
	spawnBall(_ballsLeft, randFloat, ballX, ballY);
	randFloat = _rand.nextFloat();
	ballX = _gameWidth / 2;
	spawnBall(_ballsMiddle, randFloat, ballX, ballY);
	randFloat = _rand.nextFloat();
	ballX = _gameWidth - _gameWidth / 3 / 2;
	spawnBall(_ballsRight, randFloat, ballX, ballY);
	}
	private void spawnBall(List<Ball> balls, float randFloat, int ballX, int ballY) {
	if (randFloat < _spawnChance_normal) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.Normal));
	} else if (randFloat < _spawnChance_oneup) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.OneUp));
	} else if (randFloat < _spawnChance_multiplier) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.Multiplier));
	} else if (randFloat < _spawnChance_speeder) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.Speeder));
	} else if (randFloat < _spawnChance_bomb) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.Bomb));
	} else if (randFloat < _spawnChance_skull) {
	balls.add(0, new Ball(ballX, ballY, Ball.BallType.Skull));
	}
	}

If you have any other questions I'm happy to help!
