I am using p5.js and Kinectron to have one server computer display RGB, Depth, and Skeleton data from another computer over LAN, and it's own kinect.
Using p5.js, I am trying to log two different variables to the console, and I am only able to log one of the variables.
Code:
...
function drawJoint(joint) {
fill(100);
console.log( "kinect1" + joint);
// Kinect location data needs to be normalized to canvas size
ellipse( ( joint.depthX * 300 ) + 400 , joint.depthY * 300 , 15, 15);
fill(200);
...
function draw2Joint(joint2) {
fill(100);
console.log ("kinect2" + joint2);
// Kinect location data needs to be normalized to canvas size
ellipse(joint2.depthX * 300 , joint2.depthY * 300, 15, 15);
fill(200);
...
When running the above code, the console only shows Joint data from Kinect 1 in real-time, whereas I need both Kinect's Joint data to be logged to the Console.
How can I use console.log for multiple variables/arguments ?
Thanks in advance!

You will have to use global variables so that you can log them at the same time. Here are the lines of code to add into the functions that you have so far.
// add global variables
var joints1 = null;
var joints2 = null;
function bodyTracked(body) {
// assign value to joints1
joints1 = body.joints;
}
function bodyTracked2(body) {
// assign value to joints2
joints2 = body.joints;
}
function draw() {
// log current values at the same time
console.log(joints1, joints2);
}
Try this
var joint1,jointtwo;
function drawJoint(joint) {
fill(100);
joint1=joint;
// Kinect location data needs to be normalized to canvas size
ellipse( ( joint.depthX * 300 ) + 400 , joint.depthY * 300 , 15, 15);
fill(200);
...
function draw2Joint(joint2) {
fill(100);
jointtwo=joint2;
// Kinect location data needs to be normalized to canvas size
ellipse(joint2.depthX * 300 , joint2.depthY * 300, 15, 15);
fill(200);
...
console.log(joint1+":"+jointtwo);
drawJoint and draw2Joint are called from somewhere so you can log joint
and joint2 at that time.
console.log(joint,joint2);
