I need to display motor temps on the brain in Vexcode pro v5 but I can’t figure-out how to display this when it is on forever until turned off
Please send your current code, with code tags
[Code]Code goes here[/code]I have the motor temp code on notes but I don’t know where to put it with the problem before, also I forgot to mention that I have 2 test motors and the brain because I don’t have the full bot with me.

}I fixed the formatting issue and I added a detail to the message as well saying that I have 2 motors to test on because I don’t have my bot with me
I figured this out. At the beginning of driver control it prints the temps on the screen
void usercontrol(void) {
Brain.Screen.printAt(2, 40 ,"Claw Motor Temp %f " , Claw.temperature(percentUnits::pct));
Brain.Screen.printAt(4, 60 ,"Intake Motor Temp %f " , Intake.temperature(percentUnits::pct));
Brain.Screen.printAt(6, 80 ,"LeftArm Motor Temp %f " , LeftArm.temperature(percentUnits::pct));
Brain.Screen.printAt(8, 100 ,"RightArm Motor Temp %f " , RightArm.temperature(percentUnits::pct));
Brain.Screen.printAt(10, 120 ,"Motor Temp %f " , TempTest1.temperature(percentUnits::pct));and so when on testing or on driver control as long the bot isn’t turned off it should give a reading

Without a while loop it will not update.

I believe it was in the driver control task while loop.

you are right
