Preloading blocks of images

[Quinlanptq]

I came up with the following which divides a set of trials into blocks, preloads the images for each block and then presents the blocks.

Might be of interest to those hoping to achieve a similar outcome.

Keen to hear if there is a better way.

Best

Philip.

Sorry the preload_b var should read

preload_b = {
    type : jsPsychPreload,
    auto_preload: true,
    images: this_block,
    trials : trials_with_variables
};

Thanks for sharing!

Btw: did you know that jspsych has a function for shuffling arrays as well: jspsych.randomization.shuffle()? Just pointing this out because I see it quite often that people write their own function, while you can do it out of the box with jsPsych :)

Thanks Christophe - that I didnt know but thank you so much for pointing that out.
