Wrong order on planets position

[cptolemy]

Good morning,

The routines are working great, but I found a small bug. If you look at the chart I send, to the red zone, you see that the planets are in the right place but in a litle bit "messy order". For instance, Saturn should be in Neptune's place - the line would be direct and closer and they wouldn't cross each other. What do you think?

Best regards

Dear Kepler thank you for your message. Yes, that is probably a bug.

Pls, try change the property in settings.js:: astrology.COLLISION_RADIUS = 10; //px

Has anything changed?

Hi Tom

I'm very sorry for the late reply. It solves one of them. But the others don't. I think the question is the order in degrees. Let's say that Mars and Jupiter are respectively in 15 and 10 Taurus. In the routine, Jupiter should be runned first because its longitude is less than Mars, even if in the array is in second, for example.

Hi Kepler

thanks for your answer. You are right. It is bug, and it must be fix.

Greetings

I believe the problem is the array order runned for placing the planets and solving collisions. So, if a temporary array is created with the planets in ascending longitude value, there should be no jammed planets - we must be, however, very careful in placing the correct order of names/glyphs of the planets, and careful with and order like 333º, 356º and 3º, for instance (that goes from Pisces to Aries). If I knew the code well, that would be my best sugestion. I can make some few tries though.

Kind regards

Kepler

Greetings I am also new to javascript. I wrote a graphic horoscope map in Java, it's difficult with collisions, but I did it right. So the code is there. It remains only to rewrite it correctly in javascript and insert it. Within a month, if God willing, I plan to do it. I'll let you know. There, there are other errors, wrong sign of Libra, strange colors of aspects, etc.

Hello. I wrote, as promised, my version of the astrological chart. It is available here.
