Let's see if I actually remember how to post in this forum.... (2 URLs) This was in WIP status for ages. It's been completed for several weeks now, but I finally got outside with the camera. And yes, I'd love to have only the new style containers (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) You should also consider stripping trailing whitespace from the end of the filename. I believe MLCad and most of the other programs do this. Whitespace in filenames has been supported by many Ldraw programs for quite a while, but it does not (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) John - I certainly agree that you shouldn't assume an inventory made from instructions (or pictures for that matter) is 100% correct. That's exactly the reason why we specify the source of the inventory in the first place! As for updates, once (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.inv)

| | NXT-to-NXT Messaging
|
|
The following is a good topic for this list. It deals with NXT-to-NXT messaging. It's based on an original post in the "nxtasy" forums. There's lots of room for improvement / enhancement in the NXT-to-NXT messaging. Especially when more that two (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)

| | RE: IR Problems
|

Elizabeth is quite right. It's easy to get collisions on the IR "bus" if two devices are sending (or replying) simultaneously. What I've done in the past with two RCXs is define one RCX as primary that is periodically (every 100 to 250 milliseconds (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I very strongly support allowing the inclusion of whitespace in LDraw filenames, provided the first character is not whitespace. Bricksmith has always allowed users to do this.

RCX IR does not require direct line of sight. All sorts of reflections will work. Especially if you're in a "smallish" (bedroom, home office) room. The RCX firmware always has the IR turned off. "Wait for mail" and "send mail" is just a higher (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

IR communication is no where near the reliability like a tcp/ip. You can easily lose a message ... so program must be either extremely simple one way communication. The sender should be programmed to handle message loss. What I had the kids done was (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
