Waaay ahead of me. I'm still trying to clean up enough LEGO so I have parts
to build another GBCm (I really want a good tosser, but I fear I'll need to
resort to buggy motors).

I don't know enough about Mindscript to help I fear. I can think of several
solutions, but not knowing the limitations... does "Z=(X=5)" assign a value of 1
to Z is the comparision "X=5" is true? Something like that could be an out.

I'd have to agree with Kevin - NQC is the next logical step. The only
limitation you're going to hit there is variable space, but that's based on the
standard firmware.

Take the next step, John - we'll help. There are GUI interfaces for NQC as
well, if you don't like the classic command line interface (I don't - I might as
well take advantage of the modern bloated OS's out there).
