Great work, Ted. Do you think a similar hack could make Lego Studios run under XP? Anyway, this workaround just underlines the poor, poor support from Lego.

The ON/OFF bang-bang control you are trying has some problems that proportional control does not. While it is true that if the update rate is high enough, or the controlled plant damped enough, that switching a drive ON and OFF can simulate (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) 256 * 128 = 32768, one higher as the biggest positive integer value. The cast to long would help, but your cast is too late.
