ROBOTC 2.16 Beta Is Out

Finally, after what seems to be half a lifetime and then some, ROBOTC has support for the NXT 2.0 Colour Sensor!  Yes, you read that right, you are not hallucinating!

When digging through the header files, it seems the adjustable built-in motor ramping is also back.  Hurray!  The info below was taken from the original article: [LINK].

• Bug Fixes:
  • Preserve platform type when registry information is deleted.
  • Improve code allocation of temporary variables.
  • Add “unsigned” qualifier to eliminate compiler warning.
  • Add “default” clause to switch statement.
  • “sgn” opcode for ‘float’ parameter was incorrectly checking the ’short’ result to see if it was a ‘float’ NAN (Not A Number). This check should only be performed when the function return is a float variable. This issue has been fixed
  • Generate error message if “motor and sensors setup” pragma declaration not found as first lines of program. Some users had these statements elsewhere and problems were occurring.
  • Status tool bar now displays the “port number” or “NXT name” of connected robot. Previously the field was “===========”
  • Vertical scroll was not being hidden when screen was expanded large enough to fit complete file. This problem has been fixed.
• Enhancements:
  • Added support for LEGO Color Sensor and LEGO I2C Temperature Sensor.

So head on over to the download page, download and test it out! You can find it in the Beta section.
