How To Make Jd Move

Did anyone create Auto position/Actions to make JD move: Step Forward Step Back Turn Left Turn Right

  1. Is it possible with the existent servos ?
  2. Adding one extra servo to each leg could help ?

Cheers

Every control has a ? question mark. In this example, the Auto Position question make can be pressed to bring you to this page: https://synthiam.com/Tutorials/Help.aspx?id=180

That is the manual page for the Auto Position control. There is a blurb about the movements being hard coded.

You cannot hide any actions from the list. This will never be a feature. Hiding actions does not have a productive use case scenario, as the actions are listed in a listbox with confined size. More or less actions in the list box has no interference with screen realestate or behavior.

There are no missing actions. The actions that you refer to as "missing" are bound to directions. For example, forward is a direction, so is left, and stop, etc.. These directions are bound to how a robot moves. As stated in the lesson which introduces the Movement Panel definition, that is how a robot moves. To move a robot, use the direction arrows. The direction arrows are bound to the movement. For example, similar to a video game joystick, the UP arrow is forward. The RIGHT arrow will turn the robot Right, and so on...

There can only be one movement panel, which is defined in the manuals and you will also be presented with a message when attempting to add more than one Movement Panel to a project. A Movement Panel is bound to the directions, which i stated above (i.e. forward, left, right, stop, reverse). When a Movement Panel is added to your project, any reference of Forward will use that movement panel.

It's best to start with the JD Course in the learn section. You can access it by pressing the learn option from the top of the website. Once you have completed the JD course, there is a blurb that instructs you to move on over to the Activities course. The activities course is also listed on the learn page. Both can be accessed by pressing the learn button on the top of the website, or following the instructions in the Getting Started Guide.
