There seems to be a problem in the Last couple of version that disconnect the "Ping Radar Control" from the "Custom Movement Panel". I believe this was working in an older version. The "Ping Radar Control" works with the "Movement Panel" but not the "Custom Movement Panel".
I do not understand your second paragraph regarding movement panels. If you expand in greater detail, perhaps i can help you.
Thank you DJ!
When the "ping radar control" would detect that the robot was too close to a object the robot would stop and turn with the original "movement panel".
I switched over to a "custom movement panel" so I could get speed control. With the standard "movement panel" I had to program the speed into the movement scripts.
The "ping radar control" does not make the robot stop and turn with the "custom movement panel". I thought it worked when I first switched over to the "custom movement panel", but I am not 100% sure.
Movement scripts are identical between "movement panel" and "custom movement panel" except for $speed variable is substituted for a number in the "custom movement panel" movement scripts.
I switched back to the original "movement panel" and the robot stops and turns when the robot is too close.
So it looks to me like the "ping radar control" is not treating the "custom movement panel" the same as a the original "movement panel" as would expect it to.
The "custom movement panel" was a great enhancement DJ but I suspect there is a small bug in the code. I have not tried camera control with the "custom movement panel".
I check box every time video device usb.
When I replaced my "Scripting Controls - Movement Script" with a "Misc Controls - Custom Movement Panel" the "Ping Distance Controls - Ping Radar" no longer stopped the robot and caused it to turn.
