I'm working my way through the Nature of Code book and reached a point where I decided to include the 'java-random' node module to tackle one of the examples. It seems, however, that simply 'requiring' the module is not doing the job and I'm a little lost as to what's the best way to access the modules functionality inside my jsui object. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Camilo

Unfortunately, in Max (unlike say, a browser) the JS and JSUI objects do not support node modules. Node support is only handled with the 'node.script' object. However, it's likely whatever you are trying to do could be accomplished using standard JavaScript.

thanks for your reply, Andrew. I guess it would be cool to have the support for js and jsui as well, but i suppose one can always call any external node module functions inside a 'node.script' object (which could contain any amount of modules) and pass the results back anywhere one needs them. Now I'm just wondering whether there may be an organized way of doing that.
