It would disable the safety feature and allow the robot to continue running over the Sleep(2.0); Without disabling MotorSafety the motors will stop soon after you first started them going in an attempt to keep your robot from running with a broken program.

I added the line "myRobot.SetSafetyEnabled(false);" in the code and still the same error. I also set it to true and the same error popped up. I switched the code from C++ to Java and I would get the same error "output not updated often enough" in the deploy/run window on netbeans. Even when SetSafetyEnabled is set to true or false. I even took it completely out of the code still the same error, is there somethinig here that I am doing wrong?
here's the code:
