Recently I happened across the MindScript headers for the RCX in the SDK and saw
some interesting macros for RCX communication. I decided to port them to NQC
and possibly add them to the official built-in NQC API. I would be extremely
grateful if someone out there would be willing to try out some of the functions
defined below. You can just paste this directly into your test .nqc program if
you want (unless you download the very latest swan_test.zip, in which case it's
already included).
Here's a very simple sample using the API functions below:
#pragma noinit
task main()
{
InitRCComm();
SetRCMessage(RC_CHANNEL_1, RC_CMD_FWD, RC_CMD_FWD);
repeat(5)
{
SendRCMsg();
Wait(100);
}
Wait(200);
InitSpybotComm(); // switch to Spybot communication
SetSpybotMessage(MSG_BROADCAST, ID_BOT_MIN+1, 0, CMD_FIRE_LASER, 1, 100);
repeat(2)
{
SendSpybotMsg();
Wait(100);
}
Wait(200);
SetSpybotCtrlMessage(ID_BOT_MIN+1, SPY_CTRL_BTN_1);
repeat(5)
{
SendSpybotCtrlMsg();
Wait(100);
}
Wait(200);
SetSpybotCtrlPingMessage(ID_BOT_MIN+1);
SendSpybotCtrlPingMsg();
}
