Robotc Joystick problems

Hey, I don’t know if this is the right place or not, but I’m trying to figure out how to make two motors go to one joystick. Ch3, and Ch2.
We have 4 wheels, originally only the back 2 wheels had a motor. We added motors to the front two wheel also, and I can’t figure out how to make both right wheels go to the right joystick, and both left wheel go to the left joystick.

It sounds like you are describing a 4 motor tank drive, the code for that would perhaps look like this.

#pragma config(Motor,  port2,           leftF,         tmotorVex393_MC29, openLoop)
#pragma config(Motor,  port3,           leftB,         tmotorVex393_MC29, openLoop)
#pragma config(Motor,  port4,           rightF,        tmotorVex393_MC29, openLoop)
#pragma config(Motor,  port5,           rightB,        tmotorVex393_MC29, openLoop)

task main()
{
    while(1) {
      // motors for left side
      motor leftF ]  = vexRT Ch3 ];   
      motor leftB ]  = vexRT Ch3 ];   
      
      // motors for right side
      motor rightF ] = vexRT Ch2 ];   
      motor rightB ] = vexRT Ch2 ];   
      
      wait1Msec(20);
    }
}
