  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) That's up to John Barnes as Technic/Mindstorms coordinator. It would require a dedicated space all fest, which is hard to come by, and people to coordinate/monitor it, as well as people to devise the standards (may be the same people). So (...)

  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Which I agree would be a very cool thing to see, especially with some strategic filming. Is there not room for both? Again, it would be neat to include Spybotics as well - depending on the behaviour you are trying to get. (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Hi! Cool. Now I'm a cohort ;-) (...) Well, sort of... the robotic forklift I brought to HoB is currently the most complex module (that I *know* about) that requires an RCX, but there are some other options. A ball-sorting mechanism is (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) TOTALLY agree. Not saying it's not relevant to robotics, there is lots of clever mechanical stuff to be learned from GBC... Just saying it's somewhat in a different direction from leaving a bunch of identical RCX based autonomous mobile (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Not having an RCX does not necesarily make it irrelevant to robotics. I consider automatons fairly relevant - and the technique of getting a single motor to do many things is a very valuable one, especially considering the IO limitations of (...)

  Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
(...) Right, but haven't you and your cohorts (Hi Brian!) been busily proving that there hasn't yet been a mechanism that NEEDED an RCX? Most of the GBC modules are (brilliantly, elegantly...) purely mechanical except for the train ball return, and (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

More will be announced soon, but you can get started by looking here: (URL) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
 
I've wondered about this for over a year now, but haven't brought it up because of not making it to the BF events. Now I can't stand it anymore and must ask. Have RCX owners considered pooling their units to run an event-long simulation? Each of us (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: 8 bit timer problem
 
(...) Sorry, my mistake. I actually wrote the correct address in the code on my machine. (...) Thanks anyway :) (...) (20 years ago, 20-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: 8 bit timer problem
 
(...) Looks like a typo - try this in your handler instead: "bclr #6, @0xc9:8 \n\t" // Clear CMFA // (bit 6 of // TCSR) I haven't really checked the rest of the code for anything else, though. HTH, Mark (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
