My question is does the Auto Position skill work with the Stepper servo skill? I was asking this question because I was thinking about replacing some of the joints in my Inmoov build with stepper motors with gear boxes. I would want to make sure I would have the same level of control.

The stepper robot skill turns steppers into servos. So, yes. Here’s the manual: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Servo/Stepper-Servo?id=21134
i highly recommend reading that manual so you can plan to use the limit switch feature. It’s a lifesaver!
oh and this might be useful to read. It explains how all servos in ARC are all controlled the same from all robot skills. So if something says it works as a servo, it works as a servo and uses the same options across all robot skills: https://synthiam.com/Support/ARC-Overview/Servo-Controls
Oh thanks DJ that is a big help! Also thank you for the feedback. I may have a few more questions after reviewing this stuff.
