Number of loop action.

I have just setup my RN1 to accept input from the IR remcon to allow me to set the number of loops I wish to execute.

I can now say enter number #3 and then hit the walk forward routine and the RN1 will excute the walk_forward 3 times.
I can hit number #6 and get the RN1 to execute the next routine 6 times.

You will loose the first 9 buttons to execute moves but they will allow you to set a counter up for the next action.
I have included beeps to inform me of how many loops it will perform.

Instead of losing 9 buttons, why not have one button put you into a sub that then reads the remote for the number of loops you wish to execute and then puts you back into the main loop? That way, you'd only lose one button.

Was trying that but have some issues with the remcon. Will get around to doing that when I sus the remcon out fully.

Righto.

Watching your video, a little tip for you based on what has been posted before - it looks like you have the whole forward walk (and backward walk) embedded in the loop. The original routine was designed for a single step and then returns to 'neutral'. By looping the whole thing, the motion isn't as smooth as it could be.

Check out this post here for more info.

Yes, I am aware of that. You see the foot hover as the loop starts over.
I was just doing some research and not looking for perfection. Thanks though.
It was also done so the viewer could count the loops.

I have 2 of my own walking routines that I am still perfecting.

PPs.
I have a good walk in crouch routine just done. I am looking to add a lope to the gait but with my broken arm servo it is abit tough.
