Brain freezing when downloading program from vscode

Programming Support
1

My brain is freezing when I download my project from vscode, it takes a long time to download. Then I have to take the battery out and put it back in for it to work. Then, the program is downloaded, but when I try to run it it freezes again. Other projects from vexCode IQ is working, so any help on this would be appreciated !

C++, Python ?
Use the feedback tool with the project open and tech support can have a look (assuming you are using the VEX extension)

C++ is what I’m using

Also, when I try to contact the support, it says an error occured

Is there anything wrong ?

It’s Saturday evening, I’m about to eat dinner, I’ll run it on a Brain tomorrow.
All I can say is the code doesn’t actually do anything.

int main() {
    // Initializing Robot Configuration. DO NOT REMOVE!
    vexcodeInit();

    Brain.Screen.print("Hello, VEX!");

    

}

I know, I did that on purpose, to see what is happening

P.S. - Does the code look correct ? I’ve been trying to do PID for a whole month with many struggles !

Your issue is with this code.

vex::brain Brain;
vex::motor LDMotor = vex::motor(vex::PORT9, 2.5, false);
vex::motor RDMotor = vex::motor(vex::PORT3, 2.5, true);
vex::smartdrive Drivetrain = vex::smartdrive(LDMotor, RDMotor, BrainInertial, 200);;
vex::motor BackRoller = vex::motor(vex::PORT1, true);
vex::motor IntakeRollerA = vex::motor(vex::PORT6, true);
vex::motor IntakeRollerB = vex::motor(vex::PORT4, false);
vex::motor_group IntakeRollers = vex::motor_group(IntakeRollerA, IntakeRollerB);
vex::motor Launcher = vex::motor(vex::PORT7, true);
vex::inertial BrainInertial = vex::inertial();

The smartdrive

vex::smartdrive Drivetrain = vex::smartdrive(LDMotor, RDMotor, BrainInertial, 200);;

is using the BrainInertial instance before it has been created.

update that code to

vex::brain Brain;
vex::inertial BrainInertial = vex::inertial();

vex::motor LDMotor = vex::motor(vex::PORT9, 2.5, false);
vex::motor RDMotor = vex::motor(vex::PORT3, 2.5, true);
vex::smartdrive Drivetrain = vex::smartdrive(LDMotor, RDMotor, BrainInertial, 200);;
vex::motor BackRoller = vex::motor(vex::PORT1, true);
vex::motor IntakeRollerA = vex::motor(vex::PORT6, true);
vex::motor IntakeRollerB = vex::motor(vex::PORT4, false);
vex::motor_group IntakeRollers = vex::motor_group(IntakeRollerA, IntakeRollerB);
vex::motor Launcher = vex::motor(vex::PORT7, true);

Thank you so much ! I’ll make sure to try it !
