(...) In the old Scout API there were two calls: #define local(n) (@((n) + 10)) void Call(const int n) { asm { 0x17, n }; } You can enable the API by adding -D__SCOUT_COMPAT on the command line, or just copy the above two lines into your program.

(...) I just verified that both of these work. 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() { (...)

I've been re-reading the Scout SDK and came across the following: "Program Block Library (subroutines) The Scout has an extensive subroutine library of general-purpose functions that can help reduce the size of downloaded user programs.

(...) Looking at the Scout SDK, I think it does support the same sleep time command as the RCX - although perhaps not from within a program. There are two things to try: nqc -sleep 0 or add the following function to your program and call it (with (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

I've just finished a very cool Camera mount that can be controlled via the web. (Linux, NQC & PHP) I've decided to use my scout because it's so limited. I've noticed one point and can't seem to see away way around this. I'm hoping someone can help. (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

(...) Do you have the sensor at a place where one rotation of the sensor = 360 degrees of whatever you're turning? I'd suggest putting it somewhere where it rotates a lot more times than the actual turntable. (You need a touch sensor for 0 this way, (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I have this program that monitors the location of a camera mount in a 360 degree turn. (0 and 16 are 0, 8 is 180 etc) However whenever I use SetSensor(SENSOR_2, SENSOR_ROTATION); it blanks the current sensor value when the program is restarted. This (...)
