If clicking the above image doesn't open the instructions, right-click on the image and choose "Save link as..." to download the PDF.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Step 2 Show an image @fullscreen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's useful to know that your program is running. Plug a ``||brick:show mood||`` from the **BRICK** toolbox
|
||
|
|
inside the ``||loops:on start||`` block. Change the image if you want!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```blocks
|
||
|
|
brick.showMood(moods.neutral)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Step 3 Try your code @fullscreen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Look at the simulator and check that your image is showing up. When you are ready, press the **DOWNLOAD** button
|
||
|
|
and follow the instructions to transfer your code on the brick.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Step 4 Steer motors @fullscreen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Drag a ``||motors:steer motors||`` block from the **MOTORS** toolbox and snap it under ``||brick:show mood||``.
|
||
|
|
Click on the plus and make sure to tell your motors to turn **1** rotation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```blocks
|
||
|
|
brick.showMood(moods.neutral)
|
||
|
|
motors.largeBC.steer(0, 50, 1, MoveUnit.Rotations)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Step 5 Try your code @fullscreen
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Whenever you make a code change, the simulator will restart and you can preview what your code will do there.
|
||
|
|
When you are ready, click **DOWNLOAD** and follow the instructions to transfer the code into your brick.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Remember** Take the driving base apart at the end of the session, so the other group can build it next time
