Title: Setting a bots angle
Post by: Testlund on December 04, 2013, 10:58:33 AM

Why do these two work exactly the same?

 *.refxpos *.refypos angle .setaim store

 *.refxpos *.refypos angle sub .setaim store

Shouldn't the latter change the bot to opposite direction?

There is something not right with the .hit sysvar. The code below will make a bot turn away from a shape when it SEES it!

Code: [Select]

'Movement debugger

cond
 *.hit
 *.reftype 1 =
start
 *.refxpos *.refypos angle .setaim store
 628 .aimright store
stop

It's impossible to make a bot turn a half circle and swim backwards!  :banghead:

By swim backwards do you mean something like 10 .dn store?

If you want the robot to turn but still move in the same direction you have to memorize the angle and use sin cos commands.

"COS" is another thing I need to learn, but I've figured out a way for bots to handle shape. I'll upload a sim example soon. Going to check out 2.46C now.
