(...) I *may* bring a quick caster or 2 and my mini arena for them to bounce around in. Whoever else wants to bring a 'bot with wheels and such, (even my R2 unit may make an appearance...) we could just throw them in the arena and see what happens. (...)

(...) I actually thought about doing this a while ago, and it was surprisingly a lot more work. for my robot at least, it would mean a whole second program, and I have actually used up 95% of all the 6100 bytes available on my rcx. So I agree that a (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) big talk...... for someone who has YET to add a program. in the raw Byte code no less, OVER 2 rcx's BA it cant be done.

Hi Dave, You know, I was only going after Chris cause he started it (and of course, he deserves it in a major way)…but now you’ve gone and thrown that gauntlet down. Firstly, I’m not even sure if the rules allow me to discuss technical stuff with (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) You already know this, of course, but for the benefit of those that don't... watch out for hysteresis... the train motor motion will need to be sensed independently. Still, what an interesting application if you do it! (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
