That's what I was missing. I can build/convert a Spybot with a down-pointing light sensor & LED (I had one, but couldn't get it working) Thanks Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Hansen" <JohnBinder@aol.com> Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2002 (...)

(...) Well, no. It's all in the mission customization screens in the actual Spybotics game CD. I haven't had a chance to play with the NQC stuff yet - I'm busy on another project. Cheers, Ralph (22 years ago, 29-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) That is not the way to simply turn on the laser LED. When you set motor C to forward the LED will commence sending VLL motor forward commands out the LED which, of course, will result in a flickering LED. The Scout worked the same way - the (...)

I might be wrong here, but I think you've almost got it figured out. I think the flickering is there becuase it gets turned off during regular comms or the IR range finding so that it doesn't get too confused! In otherwords, you can turn on the (...)

well, no. It's easy to get it to turn on, but it doesn't stay on. It flickers. I'm sure it can be controlled (because it's used to send data) but just using OnFwd(OUT_C); causes it to flicker.

Yes, I use NQC and BricxCC to program it.

I'm not sure if I'm setting it incorrectly, but it seems like the 'laser' on the spybot (motor out C) flickers, which is really bad when you're reading the light sensor. Is it possible to set it so it's always on? Steve ----- Original Message ----- (...) (22 years ago, 29-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
