well, then your method should work fine. I have not explored GlovePie long enough to know if it handles recursion, cause that would probably work better. But I haven't seen any, so your method should work.

hmmm, I am having a very weird problem:

If I just use keyboard to control the robot to turn, then everything works fine

but as soon as I turn on GlovePie, the keyboard starts to behave weirdly, I use "A" to turn left and "D" to turn right, just like FPS games. After I turn on GlovePie, both "D" and "A" quit working properly (sometimes the robot turns, sometimes it doesn't).

Then I tried to use my wiimote and here is the code:

Code:
if wiimote.Left == 1 then
debug = "left";
press(key.A);
else
release(key.A);
endif

if wiimote.Right == 1 then
debug = "right";
press(key.A);
else
release(key.A);
endif


the wiimote.right works fine, but wiimote.left doesn't work at all. I am 100% sure that there is nothing wrong with the wiimote.left button, because my program for controlling the robot can receive a key typed event, and I can see a bunch of outputs while I pressed down the left button. But it just doesn't work.

I am using wireless to control my robot, could there be any interference between bluetooth and the wireless network??

Your using both, As in that example... but I get your idea

just from a glance I would say the problem is that your program doesn't understand when two keys are being pressed at the same time. And I think that is what is happening here. But I'm going to test it out right now for you.

This is what you want:

Code:

key.A =  Wiimote.Left;
key.D = Wiimote.Right;


Now I understand what your doing... lol.. easy.. sorry for not understanding before.

And no, the wireless shouldn't interfere too much. The wii uses both remember.

Thanks a lot guys

I think I should explain it more clearly

The reason why I assigned the same function to both keys is I want to make sure that the "turning left" function is working. Because it didn't work with the left button, so I want to test it out with the right button.

I didn't choose to use A = wiimote.left is because it only triggers the turning function once. The turning function only turns the robot by a very small angle. I need to repeat this function couple times in order to make a large turn.

Ok, the real problem has nothing to do with the turning function or the syntax in the code. I think the problem is, even with the same function assgined to both left and right button, only the right button can make the robot turn, but left button doesn't do anything(I can detect many key pressed event caused by the left button but the robot just does not wanna move). I don't know if that has anything to do with the USB bluetooth adapter that I am using.

I am currently using the MSI starkey 2.0 bluetooth adapter.

why insetad of
Code:

if pressed(wiimote.Pitch < 30  and wiimote.Pitch > -30)
press(key.C)
wait(100ms)
release(key.C)
endif


you don't do
Code:

if pressed(wiimote.Pitch < 30  and wiimote.Pitch > -30)
KeepDown(C, 100ms)
endif

?
