(...) According to the NQC Programmer's Guide the Cybermaster wait time is in 1/10 seconds. This is consistent with my CyberMaster's behaviour when I set the threshold to a high value and the if routine is executed. I hadn't considered using sounds (...)

(...) Considering the VAST number of responses I've already received, you might just win by putting your NXT brick on the sumo table! Of course, if you add motors and wheels, and drive forward without falling off the table, you'd even get the bonus (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics)

(...) I found again an old code I wrote for Cybermaster to do avoiding based on tacho slowdown. The trick is indeed to drive at a low power level, or the wheels simply sleep and there is not enough slowdown to be reliable. Philo ---...--- task main (...)

Ooh, NXT-Sumo! David, I sure hope you'll be running your "Getting to know the NXT" breakout session BEFORE the sumo contest is held! My NXT remains sealed and unopened on a shelf in my Lego room. I'll bring it, and maybe I'll learn enough to be (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics, FTX)

(...) For the RCX wait times are in 1/100 of a second. Is that the same for the Cybermaster? If so the reverse and turn times are a little short (as well as the motor ramp up period).

I don't see 1) how I could make an if/else statement or 2) what the benefit would be. 1) If I make an if/else statement isn't 'else' executed always if 'if' is not true? (...)
