I'm trying to control the footbot turrets using the turret actuator to move the gripper around the robot.

turret_actuator->SetActiveWithRotation(ToRadians(CDegrees(180)));

Using the above code moves the turret instantaneously.

turret_actuator->SetSpeedControlMode();
turret_actuator->SetRotationSpeed(CCI_FootBotTurretActuator::SPEED_RANGE.GetMax());

Using this code does not move the turret at all.

Am I using the turret actuator controls correctly?

Hi Sophie,

In fact it's a bug

Your code should work.

I'm working on a fix, I'll make a new release in the next couple of days.

Cheers,
Carlo
