I have gotten the Spirit OCX working just fine and can do the interactive stuff no problem using VB. What is confusing me a bit is how to get the polling working correctly when I download a program. Does anyone have any VB code the code post that does the following? I'd really appreciate it. Also, I am decent VB programmer and I also am handy with C. Is there any advantage to using NQC to using VB? Any thoughts I'd appreciate.
Set Sensor on 1 to a touch sensor
while Sensor 1 is off
go forward while checking sensor
loop
if Sensor is On
stop motors
back up
turn left
reverse direction
continue
end if
Also, If anyone has a good steering mechanism they'd like to share I would appreciate it. I have on the Mindstorm set and I wanted to try and make a steering assembly cause I don't have much luck changing directions with 2 motors and thought I'd have better luck with 1 driving motor and 1 steering motor.
