Auggie crash

[DanL]

Hi bob
I have not got the board yet ordering this week, I can make one off the crashes happen every time I will do a vid showing it.

the other problem not getting YaNvrKnows scripts to work I would say I am not doing something correctly.

does auggie need to be attached to a pokeys to just play around. and just this question

Hi Dan

  No, no pokeys is needed, but as I usually have one hooked I may be missing the crashes. Im killing the crashes as I go here,
and hopefully soon they will lessen each version. ( I remeber Mach3 uses to crash daily.. :) )

  My videos are made with fresh versions so sometimes you need to get the next update to duplicate,
BUT, I think your problem may be that if you edit a screen, you should probably save and reload it before doing what
I do, loading a screen init's a lot of things internally, and Im still fighting them to make them all automatic on creation..

adding a button to the existing screen it was just not working at all, the code in your vid.

new screen it was working the bit where you say push shift and hover over a button and right click it will auto fill, if I left clicked instant crash, new and old screen it happened over and over again. I screen cast it and post the log.

still can't get YaNvrNo's first sheared script to work, I do it like he has in his picks it just does nothing same as his cross heer example.

a lot of the monkey scripts online work, so I am still learning

Dan:
Ill have a new version for you shortly I think, Ive repaired many things to eliminate a lot of the crash capabilities,
(Reminds me of early mach3, had to kill dozens.. :)
  Ive killed the naming bugs as well so the crash shouldnt occur as easily or as frequently.. We're getting closer all
the time I think.. I almost never crash, so its a matter of getting to my level for the rest of the machines..

I am still weeks away but I am picking it up, it's close to arduino stuff, what helps a bit, it just the math functions and the higher level stuff, I found some stuff I can print of what will help it just need some changes done to it, so it's auggie version not game version. craig's examples help to get the syntax correct.

Hi Art can you does us a favor can you do a vid off adding YaNvrNo first Shared Function the spiral one. for the life of me I can't get it to work, I am sure I am doing everything correctly.
it keeps coming up that it's broken after I add the script, before I add it and just run the main script it's fine.

I can load up a gcode and that shows up, if I add the Gcode to the multi line MDI and single and try to step true it, it does nothing.

the log is not working at all.

I was playing with this bit of code the other day.
myData = table( Name = "Test", Weight = 60 );

print( myData[ "Name" ] );
print( myData[ "Weight" ] );
myData["Name"] = "Albert";
myData["Test"] = "Some Text Here";
print( myData[ "Name" ] );
print( myData[ "Test" ] );

this is working sometimes.
the other day it was fine.

doing the button script from your vid work's sometimes.

it may be because I don't have a board yet, or that I am on win 10, I am going to see if i can try getting it to work on the wife's computer it's win 8.1

Hi Dan:
 
  The Debug log is now turned on by a checkbox in the config ribbon bar, youll see it just by the Audio setting..

>> can load up a gcode and that shows up, if I add the Gcode to the multi line MDI and single and try to step true it, it does nothing.

  Multiline MDI will not single step, it will ( or should) start execution on the line its set to by mouse or keys, 
and should run to the end.. with one run press, only the single line MDI will step by step execute..


I havent tried the spiral demo myself as yet, so Ill look at giving it a shot..  Generally, when you find a run provides no
compile errors, but then shows "broken" , it usually means a routine is being called it doesnt recognise, or parameters
are bad.. it can take a bit to get used to "why" and I think I need to do a video with broken scripts to show how to
debug or whats up..

Dan:

  Sorry it took me so long to figure out your trouble, It hadn't  occurred to me what exactly would happen with no board..
but I see now that the trajectory planner would not properly empty without a running motion board. Ill post a video
shortly to show the running script, it actually runs quite easily here, but I can see now why you'd have trouble.
  I really should write a imulator for it when I get far enough along so it can be played with without a board, as I have about
6 pokeys here, Im always connected to one or another so I hadn't tested without one.

  I do thank you for showing me what happens without hardware.. :)

  So expect weirdness with anything that tries motion, you'd have to replace the motions with drawiing commands, and
we haven't shown you any of those yet..

cool thanks Art it good to know I may have been doing it correctly, will keep playing with the other bit's I want to try

[DanL]

vid was big help art I was doing correctly thank you, if i hit run it's ok, broken does not show up, if I step through it does show as broken the log shows it tried, then if I kill all threads then hit run it's ok.
the script window on the main screen shows it tried to run it in the log so all good.

so if something is going to fail it should show up as broken in both run and step through, if it only fails on the step through it would say it going to be ok.

I have just ordered the 57cnc it's on the slow boat exchange rate is a killer, it may show up at the end of feb unless borisz is nice and upgrade the shipping for free.

anyway I know where I stand with the code running with no board so I will know what is a bug or what will not work at all.
fun fun

Dan:

  I think Ill be adding a simulator to it in the near future so people can play with scripts when bored with no machine..

I don't remember where you are, and it's probably too late, but there is a distributor in the states.  The price wasn't a lot different considering the exchange rate.  They shipped pretty fast, got mine quicker than I was ready to try it.  Based on a sample of one they were pretty decent to deal with.

New Zealand the first country in the world to see the sun, I saw they had the 57cnc as well, I got it from borrisz as i get a stepper driver as well. the time it takes to get here will be the same the shipping from europe or the usa is about the same slow as a wet week, the only place I can get things fast from is england they can bet local shipping by day's the record is 2 days from england that is super fast as they are 24 hours away by plane. usa is 11 hours 

Art what I thought would happen when I run a code is correct, some it will come up broken and if I run it, it's fine and the log shows a attempt at running the code.

YaKnvNo code to change the color of the dro's to show if they are homed or not if I run it, it does nothing, if I step through it, it will show as broken but it does work.

and some codes won't work at all and nothing shows up in the log for them so it makes it quite hard to do anything but if it is going to work it shows up in the log as a attempt to run or if it's got a print in it that show's up.
it's not that important as I still have other jobs that need done.

Dan:

Thx for the confirmation. Im in the process of adding a simulator which will hopefully make it so
most functions will at least work and simulate motion.. I guess its hit that point. :)
