ROBOT FIXES

Had trouble with your robot and haven't had any luck fixing it? We have too. Here is a list of issues we have faced and how we've fixed them. 

Unable to Perform More Than One Task

If you are using 2 buttons at one time (eg: a lift and a claw movement), the statement/function you use are extremely important. If you use a "while" function, the action will not drop down and will only read the code in the function and nothing else. Change the functions to 'if' statements on both actions and you will be set!

Ticking Movements

If the movement the robot is trying to do is 'ticking', this is usually a hardware issue, which can be check by using the orange programming cable to check the hardware and run the debug. From there you can check the output of the code when buttons are pressed on the controller. If this is coming back as the value inputted, change the hardware (motor controller, motor) as it may be faulty.

If this doesn't work, it is most likely a coding error that hasn't been picked up. The most common one is if the buttons don't have a "if (x)Btn = 0" statement. So recheck the statements and if you have any double ups.
