Virtual Autonomous Coding

One of my friends’ teams is using a programming studio that allows them to virtually test autonomous on their computer. Does anyone know the name of it?

Robot Virtual Worlds?

Thanks. Does it have a Tower Takeover version? I didn’t see one but I might have missed it.

Last year, it took them until May 11th to post the Turning Point world. I would expect to have to wait a similar time in order to program in that environment.

Also, specifically for the worlds for a specific game, you have to choose between a couple of preset robots. Just a heads up.

Thanks. I think the one they use you can change it. Not sure though.

The team uses vex code.

If you’re looking for coding of arbitrary robots, the Robot Mesh Studio IDE lets you simulate and program user-built robots (our 2018 Hour of Code project is one demonstration of it). We still haven’t left Kentucky yet, but I believe we’ll be trying to get this year’s game elements added to the Mimic simulator when we can spare some time to get the models from Vex and import them.
