Hi guys! I am learning how to use the Prop Boe bot on Parallax Learn and I downloaded their example files. When I try to compile the first one to my prop boe it says it can't locate "PropBOE-Bot Servo Drive". Anyone know why?

    Make sure all the references in the OBJ block have a matching file on your system. All project files must be located in the same directory as the top level object - the code you are running. If you are missing a file, then you'll have to download the file and place it in the appropriate project directory.

    Mike,
    I found the PropBOE-Bot Servo Drive file, it came with the downloaded files, but don't know what to do with it from there.

    Just discovered it meant it couldn't locate something within the Prop BOE Servo Drive it is FloatMath. Don't know what that is. Any ideas anyone.

    FloatMath comes with the Propeller Tool download and is located by default on Windows at C:\Program Files\Parallax Inc\Propeller Tool v1.3.2\Library. Note version1.3.2

    Please provide a link to the project download referenced in post #1

    I took a quick look around and was not able to find the library that comes with the Prop Tool install. Rather than zipping the entire library and attaching to this post, maybe one of the moderator knows the location or will add attach the library files to one of the stickies - if not already attached somewhere.
