VBScript to Keyboard Send
Ben from United States  [4 posts]

I am trying to make a usb missile launcher follow a red blob and then shoot it when it centers on it. (see attached) I am using the Keyboard_Send module to send a left or a right keyboard arrow to the missile launcher program.

The only part that does not work is reassigning a different value to the "key_ to_send" variable each time I move the blob.   For instance when I move the blob to the left and test <=100, "key_to_send" is still shows up as equal to {RIGHT} (under the modified Variable table in VBScript module) instead of {LEFT}. So the missile launcher continues to turn right.

Let me know if you have any advice.



Here is the VBScript I am using( I have attached the .robo file I am using):


cogx = GetVariable("COG_X")
leftThreshold = 100
rightThreshold = 200

SetVariable "test", cogx

if test <= leftThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{LEFT}"
else
  if test >= rightThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{RIGHT}"
  else
    SetVariable "key_to_send", ""
  end if
end if

cogx = GetVariable("COG_X")
leftThreshold = 100
rightThreshold = 200

SetVariable "test", cogx

if test <= leftThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{LEFT}"
else
  if test >= rightThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{RIGHT}"
  else
    SetVariable "key_to_send", ""
  end if
end if

I copied the code twice above, it should just be:

cogx = GetVariable("COG_X")
leftThreshold = 100
rightThreshold = 200

SetVariable "test", cogx

if test <= leftThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{LEFT}"
else
  if test >= rightThreshold then
  SetVariable "key_to_send", "{RIGHT}"
  else
    SetVariable "key_to_send", ""
  end if
end if
