So it seems. Your example doesn't work beyond 32000 cycles either.

Testlund:
OK, I think this is good enough. The rotating eyes will stop after 32000 cycles but the eye sweeping will continue.

Testlund:
I've been trying another crazy eye idea. I want the eyes to be like antennas on an insect scanning the area in front of it. I'm halfway there, but I'm wondering if there are limitations to what can be calculated here, because the eyes use negative values for half of their possible positions and it might not be possible to use that in the custom labels here.

To properly see how it works so far you need to pause the simulation, set it to the slowest speed, click on the bot before you start the sim.

Shadowgod2:
this is very similar to what i will be doing. so far i just have the start pos

Testlund:
OK, but the eyes don't move. I was thinking something more like this:
