(...) Do you mean Event()? I think it is defined in MacNQC 2.2a3, but there's a nasty bug in it that was only recently fixed at NQC 2.2r2. Its possible to define your own version of Event() (named something different of course) if you need to use (...) (25 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) What specifically do you have in mind? The limitation is going to be from the firmware bytecodes...no floating point, no transcendentals, no math larger than 16 bits. Switching over to legOS would give you floating point, but still no (...) (25 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

In article (...) Sorry for the delay...I haven't been keeping up with lugnet.robotics as much as I should. NQC generates the same sort of bytecodes that RCX Code does, so they are both at the same "level" (specifically bytecodes executed by an (...) (25 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: single motor pneumatic pump and switch
|
|
I think the key is that the differential has a lot less resisitance than the white slip gear. Your idea would work, but if I understand you, the slip gear would be slipping the whole time the pump is pumping, meaning the motor has to overcome the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: single motor pneumatic pump and switch
|

Does this mechanism actually need the differential? If you used a 24 tooth crown (the horrible bendy one) on the motor and this turned the white slip gear for the switch and also a standard 24 tooth for the pump, the diff isn't needed, or is it just (...)
