I know you helped me when I first got into trying to code my own controller. That was the most knowledge I had as well. What I learned from writing html raw into notepad and then saving as html

There is a learning curve, just like with any programming language. It helps to have some prior knowledge of a programming language since that helps understand syntax and things of that nature. Everyone here helps a lot and it really just comes down to continual practice with the coding and putting the components together properly to get the action you are looking for. I have some blue LED rocker switches that I spent a couple of days working on to get them to function properly. I wanted the LED to light up when the rocker was activated but for the longest time it would stay on at all time

Oh lucky! I am pretty much solo on this. I think I will just type out the letters I need on my phone and then trace them with the transparent sheets and cut it away with an xacto knife.

I had thought about that but the ink in my printer is all dried out from lack of use and it will cost a lot to replace the ink. I swear, you could run a printer on liquid money for less than buying ink.

I remember looking at your project. I do have the code set up for how I want it to work so the hard part is getting everything put together. I will need to go through and probably tweak the code since I havent messed around with it since before ksp moved past 1.0. I already have all the parts for it too and I had previously cut all the wiring needed to put it together. It was seriously the bulk of the cost of making a controller. The hard part of this approach is getting the sticks to stay put and waiting for the glue to dry. I may go get some gorilla wood glue since I imagine

I just thought I would share what I am working on. I normally hate posting a WIP because I tend to get super enthusiastic about a project and then never get around to actually finishing it. I felt that I had to share this though. I see so many awesome controllers for this game and I always wanted done of my own. I originally was working on a my own controller using a type of wood that was left over from when it was being used to make a child sized rocking chair. The wood turned out too thick to mount any switches or buttons to it. Everyone on here seems to have made, or at least sta

Radial Chutes in storage bay.
kungfufishstick posted a question in Technical Support (PlayStation 4, XBox One)
I was curious if anyone had a fix for an issue I'm having. I like to place radial chutes in a storage bay to prevent them from burning up on re-entry. On the console they go red as soon as I launch and they have to be manually deployed on decent after I open the storage bay. -
Its alright. I tried my hardest to get it working. I will put the code up somewhere tomorrow after I swap out the jumpers for register 2 with ones that I didn't make myself to rule that possibility out. Ill also just send you a message, rather than plastering big posts all over zitronen's post for this plug-in. When this whole mess gets sorted out, I will just put up a link to how it was sorted out. I feel kind of bad about the wall of text from that last post.

I'm right back into not quite understanding what is going on. I gave unsigned long for warnings a shot (I keep trying to figure out array but it is just flying right over my head). I set up warningSet a couple of different ways. byte warningSet(byte warnings, byte n, boolean s) { if (s) { digitalWrite(LATCHPIN, LOW); warnings |= (1 << n); // forces nth bit to 1 shiftOut(DATAPIN, CLOCKPIN, MSBFIRST, warnings); shiftOut(DATAPIN, CLOCKPIN, MSBFIRST, warnings>>8); shiftOut(DATAPIN, CLOCKPIN, MSBFIRST, warnings>>16); digitalWrite(LATCHPIN, HIGH); } e

Alright, I just want to make sure I have this correct for my shift registers. I finally got around to making enough jumpers to accommodate all of the LEDs I plan on using and have all 3 shift registers daisy chained together. There are a couple of things I'm not sure about. Do I need a shiftOut line for each shift register? Does the numbering for pins increase as you go up or is there a special numbering after you go through 0-7 pins? After I got everything hooked up, the lighting has gone crazy. I have 23 LEDs for various indications and there are only 4 that are lighting up when you load in
-
And to any future readers that are new, don't forget to declare byte warnings = 0; Alright, no errors on compile. I am not getting the LED to come on. Would it be possible that I need to include shift out code? EDIT: Adding the shift code was necessary. I have the LED working. Now on the the rest. A quick question: If I daisy chain additional shift registers, would the numbering for the pin just continue up with each LED?

Alright, I added the code to the right tabs and have everything set up how I figure it should be set up. I decided to copy the code you showed in the example to get it working before I have a go at changing it. After some several compile/builds I managed to get the errors down to a couple, but I am unsure how to correct them. Here is what I have added: Utilities.ino if (fuelcaution != 0) warnings = warningSet(warnings, 0, true); void warningSet(byte warnings, byte n, boolean s) { if (s) { warnings |= (1 << n); // forces nth bit to 1 } else { warnings &= ~(1 <

Alright, so to set it all up to call a function for each indication I would need to just set it up how you explained for each indication that is needed. Would I handle when they are called like how it is done with the caution and warning that comes in the code by default using the if( caution != 0) statements but replacing caution with one of my choosing?
