Hi!

I'm looking to start with Pixi, and i thought it would be fun to look if i can play around with the Slots from the Examples . Now when i look at the code provided i think i understand de part where the 5 reels are build and filled with 4 random symbols each. The part i don't understand is how it works when spinning the slots it looks like the reels are filled with infinite random symbols.

Can someone explain to me in wat part of the code this effect is happening?

Code can be found here: https://pixijs.io/examples/#/demos-advanced/slots.js

Hi,

I'm the one who made that example. Here's a short description on how it works. The text uses only one reel as an example as all the others function in the same way:

Let's say we have a position where the reel is (reel.position). This position is increased on each frame. Then each sprite is positioned based on that position. When the symbol is detected to be back to start, a new symboltexture is randomized to it.
