As far as I can tell, there is no advantage, other than the fact that the motor
control command allows you to turn on/off other motors at the same time as
changing the direction. Other than that, it's a matter of personal preference,
by my viewpoint. I'm not a master coder by any means, and there may be a slight
execution speed difference or memory usage difference, but that is beyond me.
Hope this helped!

Hi I am trying to understand if there is much advantage on using the "change direction" command, instead of using the usual "turn on motor " in the opposition direction command. (20 years ago, 1-Mar-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
