Re: One program!

Does NXT have a text based language yet? Or are you stuck using the buggy drag and drop one that comes with the NXT kits?

Needless to say, I'm very, very impressed. I did FLL for 5 years, and am well aware of the challenges that you face. I like how you bounce of walls to find your position, we always found it to be faster, easier and more reliable than tracking lines. And perhaps most impressive is that you managed to do this reliably. We always split our missions up into multiple programs not only for attachment changing, but also so if one turn messed up our whole program wasn't shot.
