GetHeading() and Navigation question

1) I was trying to use this in the MoveWithOptions function call, as suggested in the new guide. When I compile i get an error indicating that GetHeading() was not declared in this scope. I have the latest version of the behaviour file ( 04_01) 2) I am curious in the "driveSquare" behaviou...

Re: "MoveWithOptions" test

I tried your suggestion and i do not get straight motion, Ringo goes in an arc. 2) in guide, I tried the code on page 51, to go forward, then backup. This does not work either. 3) I then tried to modify it as suggested to use GetHeading() in place of "0" in the function call for the headin...

Simple Rotation

I was trying the example navigation on page 49 of the Guide, using the RotateSimple routine. Problem: no matter what degrees of rotation i put in, Ringo goes forward in straight line. Any suggestions?!? Code Follows: #include "RingoHardware.h" void setup() { HardwareBegin(); //initialize R...

"MoveWithOptions" test

1) testing simple movement with Motors(x,y) shows that I need to have left motor running at about 1.06 of right motor speed to maintain relative straight line. 2) I modified line 751 [in RingoHardware tab] to read " Motors(1.06*Speed,Speed);" 3) when I try the simple example in the guide (...

attack mode calibration?

I have run the gyroscope calibration and it seems to be very close. [ on that note: i started with about 45 deg undershoot and get within 5-10 degrees of overshoot; if I try to compensate for that I end up back at about 40 deg undershoot]. When I run the "attack" behaviour, Ringo goes in w...

Re: Missing MiscHardware Library ?

All seems OK now.
I downloaded updated IDE, still had the problem, so I re-downloaded the zip file for the code, replaced the old file and all works.
Somehow the file(s) got corrupted I suppose.

cheers for now

Re: Missing MiscHardware Library ?

OK, will try that; at moment the download page at arduino.cc is not opening!...looks like it is going to be 'one of those days'.
I'll let you know if this solves the issue, when/if I get updated IDE

Re: Please provide technical details.

Sorry; I was referring to the previous response from Kevin to "Ringo207" regarding getting a list of all available Ringo commands.
Perhaps it will be in an upcoming version of the guide as an appendix?
