Subject: [alt-beam] Failed phototropism
For some reason i cannot (still *sheesh*) got my almost complete walker
circuit to act phototrophically! I've tried hooking the photodiodes in like
in the BEAMant, i've tried hooking them in like on the light seeking head,
and damnit, they just don't work! What i have found is that you can severly
screw up the gate (gait, i've seen it both ways) by doing so. So, if you
haven't seen those circuits go to beam-online.com, Nimbus is on his (hmm,
lets see) 4th or 5th add on, first the touch sensors, then the diodes, then
the rebuild of the diodes, then the third diode rebuild, then a piezzo
electric buzzer (for when he gets bumped), so its a little crowded, but the
diodes already have a fixture and all i need is the correct circuit. ThAnKs!
