|

I've released another version of BricxCC. This release fixes a couple minor bugs. The Code Explorer feature wasn't processing a file when it was first opened (it was waiting until the first change was made). That should work correctly in this (...)

(...) I don't know if you are using BricxCC or not, but I get a single error when I try to compile this line of code if the target is set to Scout or Cybermaster.

(...) I had a similar problem using RoboLab. I had a task that looped and checked the light sensor once in each loop. If the light sensor changed within the loop but NOT at the time when the check was made it would be missed. I replaced it with a (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

The hardware can get a light sensor reading every 1 mS. Is the process that is reading the light sensor at a high enough priority?

I'm a new legos user and I'm trying to get my first app working. The issue appears to be that the light sensor value isn't getting updated as frequently as I expected. When I slow down the motors my line tracking program works fine. I speed it up (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
