I'll fix the API for the next NQC release, but in the meantime, you can always add the following functions to your Scout programs: void SetSleepTime(const int t) { asm { 0xb1, t }; } void SleepNow() { (...)

| | | | | (...) You know, I tried that. It didn't work. But then I'm using my new editor (that I'm working on) and had forgotten to set the brick type with EACH command to NQC. I only had it set to compile/Download. So the scout wouldn't be 'unlocked' until I (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

I might consider adding the information as part of the regular program download message (with the battery level). For devices other than Scout, there isn't a fixed (...)

Also, what does the Scout API include with the program? I know in the RCX it turns all motor ports (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

I don't think we have to hunt around for undocumented features - just verify that (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

NQC wouldn't have gotten this far without the suggestions of the user community. Dave (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
