Re: Using a limit switch to limit motion
After some futzing with the terminal window, our programmer was able to retrieve the joystick position and use it to stop upward motion on the joysticks if the limit is reached, but still enable the joysticks for downward motion (now there is no wobble). His comment on this discovery was "Programming with Vex is Jawesome!"
