I finally got my school division to install Blockly Prop after several months of a long battle! YEAH!
So I have just started tinkering in Blockly Prop and started a student challenge to build a jeopardy style game running on a personally designed board similar to the Prop Activity Board. My boards have access to pins 5 - 27. (Other pins are tied to specific robot control aspects like xbee etc)
Essentially I want 3 buttons which each control their own LED. When any one button is pushed, the Led Lights up and Locks all the rest of the players out until the Teacher pushes a 4th (separate Button to reset the code)
I have the code for the button and the lockout going which didn't take long.
However, I have spent several hours trying all kinds of arrangements to "reset" or (Clear all the prior commands) so that the LED's go out and all push-buttons are ready to trigger their LED for the next question. I don't want the instructor to have to cut the board off and on every time a new question is asked.
QUESTION: IS THERE A WAY TO "RESET" ALL THE PUSHBUTTONS in an IF ...ELSEIF loop in Blockly when each button is assigned the "break"command when pressed?
Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this.
My code is in the link below.
