First, let me apologize for mistyping NQC as NCQ. Hey Ben! Hope those rumors are true. So if they are going to do something with remote switches and such, will it be similar to DCC or radio/infrared control? I'm guessing some form of remote control. (...)

Hi Ben F.! Maybe all your work is a little needless, since there are rumors going around here in Germany, saying Lego is going to invent new more realistic trains next year, or even late this year around X-mas...... I've heared about it from a (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)

Thanks Dan. Actually, I just came up with this myself but I added a float line as follows to stop it a little more gracefully. if (__speed == 0) {Float(OUT_A);} I'm pretty pleased with the results now. Hopefully I'll be able to avoid those train (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)

(...) you never check if your speed is 0 in this task - IMO, you need to add: if (__speed == 0) {Off(OUT_A)}; (I'm guessing here, since I haven't really done any NCQ myself yet. :/ Dan (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)

When I first bought my RCX some time ago, I dreamed of using the remote control to drive the train. Well I think I finally have it working. The following code works but has a problem which perhaps somebody can help me with. The program looks for (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)

Hello fellow LEGO maniacs. My latest MindStorms "robot" is rather unusual. It has only ONE wheel, NO motors, two touch sensors, one light sensors, and a bunch of rubberbands. What is that?! It's a MindStorms version of the popular Parker Brothers (...) (25 years ago, 18-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I've updated the nqc-doc rpms at(URL) to include the PDF versions of the documentation. Also, this rpm now places its docs alongside that from the main nqc package, in /usr/doc/nqc-[version]. I've also GnuPG signed all the rpms I'm distributing. (...) (25 years ago, 18-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)

Thanks to everyone who suggested that I use NQC for programming, I now have a copy of RcxCC installed, and programming in it is easier than in the lego graphic interface (as long as you remember the ;'s) The coal unloader program is done (it took (...)

I just put version 3.1 of RcxCC on my web page. The only change is that it uses NQC version 2.1r1. Mark Overmars (URL) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
