Hey all, Often it seems that noone seems to post about the state of the Lugnet Spotlight function except to complain about how it gets filled up with the conflict threads.

(...) Okay, there's a little more to it than this. If you have a display that supports greyscales, it can control the level of the voltage jolt that's applied to each pixel during the actual refresh cycle. That way you get a smoother display with (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking, FTX)

I just look up the dimensions of these things and they're restricted to 2.5m wide including mirrors. 8 wide is about 0.8 studs to the foot for US trains (IIRC) so 7/0.8=2.66m so you're right. I thought these things were bigger. They sure (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)
