Project Notes

A robotic arm, whose physics I confess I must give math credit for to Alan X and his Trigbot project.


Specifically in the "set x/y to ((x/y of next lowest link) -/+ (length of next lowest arm * (cosine/sine of (direction of next lowest link))))" area.


I also solved a problem the aforementioned project had (no offense, Alan X): when a lower link moved, upper links did not change their direction.


Said problem is fixed now.


Controls:


Up and Down Arrow Keys: Choose Active Link


Left and Right Arrow Keys: Move Active Link Counterclockwise or Clockwise, respectively


T Key: Cycle Active Tool


Spacebar: Use Active Tool


L Key: Toggle Thin/Wide Laser Beam


There are some known problems with the magnet tool (instead of magnetically drawing something to itself, it almost instantaneously picks it up).


If anybody decides to download this, see if you can find the problem.


I may or may not use this in something else, like a game.


I don't care if anyone remixes this or uses it themselves, so long as they give credit to me (Aexis).


Or Alan X.


Or both.


Enjoy.
