'Have a paper js file that can be imported as a module
I am making a game and I would like to have my code split into two files. One, an ordinary javascript file for the gameplay, the other a paperscript file for all the graphics. I want to call functions from the paperscript file from the main file, but as far as I can see it needs to be loaded with type="module" for me to be able to call functions, but it also needs to be loaded with type="text/paperscript" for it to work as paperscript.
If there is annother way to call functions from a different file I would like to hear about it, or if there is a way to include both type="module" and type="text/paperscript" in the same script element.
If this is not possible I know I could use javascript not paperscript but I would rather not because all the examples I have seen are using paperscript
Solution 1:[1]
I've figured out how to do what I want and I feel very stupid now. I learned python and am new to javascript and didn't realise that you could just call functions from other files, in python you can only do this by using modules.
Here I can declare a variable as window.<myVariableName> in paperscript to be able to access it from raw javascript.

Use the type module for the methods you need and create another js file for paperscript. The paperscrit file you import it inside the declared type = "module"
