Forward And Stop Command In Joystick

Question

Hi everyone I am trying to create a Quadruped.

i have created a forward movement script and the ControlCommand scripts for "Forward" and "stop"

now, when i use the jobsticks, The forward script will not stop playing

does anyone know how do i make it such a way that when i release the d pad in the joystick, it will deactivate the "forward" script?

my code as follows:

ServoSpeed(D15,2) ServoSpeed(D16,2) ServoSpeed(D18,2) ServoSpeed(D19,2) :forward Servo(D15,40) Servo(D18,40) Servo(D16,60) Servo(D19,60) Sleep(800) Servo(D15,60) Servo(D18,60) Servo(D16,40) Servo(D19,40) Sleep(800) Goto(foward)

Don't you just need to program the Joystick like this?  Or don't you have a movement panel?

Yes I am using the movement panel script I have forward script and stop script In movement panel script, I use command ControlCommand("forward",startScript) And ControlCommand("stop",startScript) I am using Logitech rumble pad. When I shift my left analog stick up , the forward script is started When I release it the stop script is started. However, the forward script won't stop. I need the forward script to stop. Any idea?

I see you have two different scripts for forward and stop. Try adding controlcommand("forward", scriptstop) for Stop Command or add it at the beginning of your stop script if it is a separate script. Your forward is in a loop so it will loop forever until the entire script is stopped. I'm still playing with scripts with my Wall-E build but at least i think that's how it work.

You need to add a test condition at the end of your script to see if the joystick has the same button pressed then loop back to :forward. I don't know how your bot moves but just removing the Goto may work for you
