So far I have managed to get the button to turn the motors on when held, and off when let go. Then when I tried to toggle it, all i could manage was on. It wouldn't turn off. I have looked through threads and online at www.github.com, but still don't understand how to toggle the button. I just don't know what to put in the OI, in the command, and in the subsystem.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
If you need more information or my code i'm more than happy to post it but wanted to get this thread out as soon as possible. |
I had this problem yesturday
make sure the method your using is .whileHeld();
turn off your motors in the interrupted() method of your command. the interrupted method will automatically run when teh button is released as long as whileHeld() is the command being used
