remember the spike has three output states: forward, reverse, and off.

I tried writing some code to get make it so when I press p1 trigger the piston will close, then wait a little then open, then allow it to be "fired" again.
But when the second wait() comes up the computer either crashes, and with it commented it, it doesn't work. What's wrong.
void wait(void)
{
time = 0;
count = 0;
for (count=0; count <10000; count++)
{
for (time=0; time < 50; time++)
{
prev = 1;
}
time = 0;
}
count = 0;
time = 0;
}
void fire(void)
{
printf("Piston Forward\r");
relay1_rev = 0;
relay1_fwd = 1;
wait();
printf("Piston Back\r");
relay1_fwd = 0;
relay1_rev = 1;
// wait();
printf("Firing done!\r");
prev = 0;
}
if (p1_sw_trig == 1 && prev == 0)
{
prev =1;
fire();
}
