Reply To: Engine control – move 45°, wait, move 45°, wait

Hi there

Sorry I did not answer your second question.

I also tried to delete the time to wait, but the Brick still does wait for about 4-6s. Why is it doing that?

The program need to JIT compile each function call (only the first time they are called). That is simply the nature of running on the .NET framework, but on a small processor like the one in the LEGO brick this can sometime takes a little bit longer than expected. On a PC you do not notice it while on the LEGO brick you will… One way to avoid this is to AOT (Ahead Of Time) compile the program (using the menu) from the program menu on the firmware. Another way is to call the function that take a long time to execute once to make the program JIT compile it – this way it executes fine the next time.
