  Re: rotation sensor problem, again...
 
(...) On second thought, this need not be the case. Maybe the initial sensor state starts out at whatever value it normally starts out at after bootup (probably zero), and simply never gets set (or reset) to the state indicated by looking at the (...)

  Re: rotation sensor problem, again...
 
(...) That you see values -1, 2, and 1 sounds like the current state of the rotation sensor is not considered when when the sensor is reset, like it is reset to a state of 0 when it should be reset to the current state of the sensor, like 0, 1, 2, (...)

  rotation sensor problem, again...
 
Just when you thought it was all fixed. I use the following code: ds_active(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_on(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_set(&SENSOR_2, 0); to setup a rotation sensor. Immediately after calling ds_rotation_set(), and /without moving the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
