[Solved] Help with Brake script on wiki

[Canyonfive]

Here is my script. Where did I go wrong or why did it stop on the MaxDecel?

MaxDecelG = 1.20
chBrake = addChannel("vBrake", 25, 0, 0, 100, ' ')

function updatevBrake()
BrakeG = getChannel(LongAccel)
BrakePos = (BrakeG/MaxDecelG)*100

if BrakePos < 10 then BrakePos = 0 end
BrakePos = math.abs(BrakePos)
if BrakePos > 99 then BrakePos = 100 end
setChannel(chBrake, BrakePos)
end

setTickRate(25)
function onTick()
updatevBrake()
end

Here is the error

Thought it might be the uppercase in the variables but no it still fails

Even though I'm on the current firmware it looks like it worked with getImu instead of getChannel.


MaxDecelG = 1.20
chBrake = addChannel("vBrake", 25, 0, 0, 100, ' ')

function updatevBrake()
BrakeG = getImu(1)
BrakePos = (BrakeG/MaxDecelG)*100

if BrakePos < 10 then BrakePos = 0 end
BrakePos = math.abs(BrakePos)
if BrakePos > 99 then BrakePos = 100 end
setChannel(chBrake, BrakePos)
end

setTickRate(25)
function onTick()
updatevBrake()
end
