| (...) X and Y positioning of the dispenser and dispenser actuation uses three motors (I think). So moving back from the playboard, might want to be done by just moving the dispenser back from the board area (-Y?) and not the whole player. Any chance (...)

| | |  | | Re: GBC Train crossing, IndyLUG & Chibots
|
| (...) Hmm. A very interesting idea just came up. Given that we want to integrate a GBC into a train layout, I just had a cool idea that we could run a non-GBC train THROUGH the GBC. All I need is a sensor to detect where the other train is (or know (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

That way we could run it so the two trains are often (always?) headed for the crossing at the same time, but never (...) (21 years ago, 15-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

| Well, when I started to type this e-mail, I had a question, but I think I've already answered it. I was thinking about our GBC trains. If we don't want to run them on the same loop, maybe we could run them on separate loops that cross over each (...) (21 years ago, 15-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

There are two places you could have downloaded the BrickOS stuff from. 1) The NQC site, which has everything (like the kernal) pre-built. 2) The BrickOS site, where YOU need to build everything.
