Pros Brain Screen Turning Gray

Programming Support
1

I am using pros::screen::draw_pixel to draw on the brain screen, but when I run the code, the brain draws it correctly, then the screen immediately turns gray. If I constantly draw it in the control loop, then it lags the opcontrol (it is a lot of drawpixels). Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thank you!

Actually, I was able to make it work using threads, but I would also appreciate it if someone could explain why the gray screen happens. Thank you!

Could you send a copy of your code?
Bit hard to help debug without it.

	for (int x = 0; x >= 0; x++){
		for (int y = 0; y < 272; y++){
			if (data[x + (480 * y)] == '0'){
				pros::screen::set_pen(COLOR_BLACK);
			}else if (data[x + (479 * y)] == '1'){
				pros::screen::set_pen(COLOR_WHITE);
			}
			pros::screen::draw_pixel(x, y);
		}
	}

(data is the string of 0s and ones that I want to print but it’s too large to show here)

This is an issue, fix that and see what happens.

and you also have different offsets into the data array

Oh sorry, I sent the wrong code. It is supposed to be x < 480 , also I changed it to (480 * y) (that was also a mistake) and it still has that problem.
