I just finished a prototype of the great race for a school project but for some reason column 5 and 7 switched places so all the data that is supposed to be on column 7 is on column 5 and vice versa. This project is due soon can you please point out all possible causes for this to happen?
Thanks

Re: Schematic
I did connect RA6 to the left button and RA7 to the right but on the schematic on top of the topic it is actually the other way around

Re: Schematic
http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Components/General/00097.jpg in this picture you can see the internal connections of the buttons so I think the way to do it is connect either the ground or the microcontroller to pin 1 or 2 and the other one to pin 3 or 4, I mean I think it is the same to use 1-3 ...

Re: Schematic
I know it was a joke but could that really be the problem? I mean if either side is fine (up or down) why if I use the connections shown on that schematic (the one provided by 1kiko1) the car goes the opposite sides?

Re: Schematic
What do you mean by putting the buttons backwards? I thought it was the same to put the buttons one way or rotated 90 deegres

Re: Schematic
Yeah you are probably right, I just wanted to make sure because it seemed odd that of the 3games ive build i had to change the button connections on all 3 of them

Re: Schematic
What pins exactly are connected to the buttons? Because I always seem to connects the wrong button to each pin so the car moves to the opposite side of the button

Re: Tutorial 7 - All the info you need is right here!
Hey brad the other day I tried to change the track data from the great race but when I saved it all the code turned into black and when I tried to make it a hex file (quickbuild) It said that there was no asm file
