Meredith and Lauren's Traffic Animation

How to run our animation:

• First choose settings on the sliders for the number of cars that you want to have running vertically and horizontally.
• The buttons are all in the order that you need to click on them, starting at the upper left, moving down the left column, then moving down the right column. More specific directions follow.
  • Next, start by clicking the "set up lights" button.
  • Then click the "run horizontal cars" and "run horizontal cars2" buttons almost simultaneously.
  • After you watch the cars run for a litle bit, click on the "stop horizontal" button.
  • Immediately after, click the "line up horizontal" button.
  • Then click on the "run vertical cars" and "run vertical cars2" buttons almost simultaneously. You may need to push the "run vertical cars2" button twice.
  • After you watch the cars run vertically for a little bit, click on the "stop vertical" button.
  • Immediately after, click the "line up vertical" button.
  • Then click on the "collide" button and the "approach road" button.
  • Next, click on the "stop" button and the "cross road" button (when the turtle comes out of the house and has the traffic stop for him and he crosses the road is the EXTRA CREDIT).
  • Finally, click on the "horizontal again" button.
  • To stop all animation, you can use the "stop" button again.

Here are some pictures of what the animation looks like in progress:
