Car blocks are blocks which controls both of the motors at the same time in order to move the forward / backwards (Car - Move block) or turn left / right (Car - Turn block). These are convenience functions designed to be "general purpose". Motors can be controlled directly with the Motor blocks. See section #Motors.
Block: Move
The Car's movement direction can be controlled using the Car - Move block.
Function: This blocks controls the Buggy Base to move either forward or backwards at a certain speed for a specified duration.

|
Description: When activated, Buggy Base will move forward at max speed (255) for 3 seconds.
Example 2: Move forward, then backwards
Note: this example is performed in offline mode . |
|
|
Description: When activated, Buggy Base will repeatedly move forward at half speed (127) for 2 seconds, then move backwards at half speed (127) for 2 seconds.
