Lego Powered Up Tutorial #16: touchscreen controller for trains [English|HD]

This time we'll look into an option to make our own touchscreen controllers to control lego trains with the powered up app. It's pretty simple to do with a new update but we'll make a few things manually to be able to implement a proper stop button.

I can’t find the correct blocks because the app had an update an everything looks different, please make an updated version

Thanks for the request. I will add it to the list but I can't promise anything. On the positive side: the positions of the blocks should be the same as before, meaning that you can count the number of the block to see which ones I used

I can used 2 touchscreen controller in my program? For example if i have 2 train and i want to screen a colour and change track on my way

You can use multiple sliders in one touchscreen interface, but not switch between interfaces within one program

Hey. Thank you for these tutorials, I'm pretty new to coding and you're significantly helping me. One question; I have the 4x4 extreme off-roader motors and hub. I have used those parts in another design of mine. I am getting a problem of my wheels are straight when I release the turning slider from the left but when I release the slider from the right the wheels are still turned slightly to the right. Is there a way to code the steering to turn the motor a little bit more when I release the slider in a specific direction? If so would you be able to make a video or point me to a video that will help with that? (I haven't watched all of your tutorial videos yet I'm kind of jumping around to try to find my answer.) Thanks

Glad that the tutorial helps :) The problem is probably that the gears have a bit of space inbetween them etc. Of course there are options to do that (you could use a variable as position input and then change the value of the variable depending on the previous position of the slider or something like that) but I don't have an easy solution at the moment. Another option that I've seen is that some people added buttons to add or substract something from the position variable.
