Programming Shooter C++
 
I'm programming in c++ and i cant get the shooter to work. All i want it to do is when i press a button on the joystick, it runs the motor and if im not touching the button the motor doesnt run. How do i do this?:confused: :confused: :confused:

I have no idea what your setup is, but it would look something like this:
Code:

while (IsOperatorControl())
                {                 
                        bool Button =joystick -> GetRawButton (3);
                        if (Button)
                        {
                                Motor1->Set(1);
                        }
                        else if (!Button)
                        {
                              Motor1->Set(0);
                        }
                }

Can you post your current code?

Without your current code its hard to tell what the issue is, but I would make sure that you have it in the constructor correctly. I'm going guess that its a Jaguar, but it could easily be a Victor as well.

Code:

#include "WPILib.h"


class RobotDemo : public SimpleRobot
{
       
        Jaguar shooter;

        Joystick driveStick; //it can be any name, not strictly driveStick :)

public:
        RobotDemo(void):
               
                //JAGUARS//
                shooter(1),            //This is what port your shooter motor is in on the Sidecar
                                                       
                //JOYSTICKS//        // These must be initialized in the same order
                driveStick(1)        // as they are declared above.
               
        {
               
                shooter.SetExpiration(0.1);  //for Driver Station
               
        }
       
        void Autonomous(void)
        {
                        //where your autonomous would go
        }
       
        void OperatorControl(void)        //The Operator Control, what you're looking for!
        {
                while (IsOperatorControl())
                {
                       
                        if(driveStick.GetRawButton(2)) //This is a structure that says if 2 is pressed, shooter
                        {                                                          //will be set to 100%
                                shooter.Set(1.0);
                        }
                        else                          //anytime when it isn't pressed (else), the shooter will turn
                        {                                                          // off
                                shooter.Set(0.0);
                        }
                       
                        Wait(0.005);  // wait for a motor update time
                }
        }
       
        void Test()
        {
                //what runs during test mode
        }
};

START_ROBOT_CLASS(RobotDemo);
