Re: Dashboard

I coded it in VB. The robot stores its position as a double, then I convert it into a char (255x255 resolution) and send it via 2 user bytes. The speed is sent via 4 user bytes and 2 limit variables (not used otherwise by us). Designing the dash actualy took the longest, the parsing code was pretty easy.
