Starting and stopping a Python project in VEXcode VR will control when your VR Robot moves in its virtual Playground.
How to Start a Project
Important Note: The first time a Python project is started, there may be a small delay as the Python system is loading into your browser. This delay is normal and should only occur the first time the Python project is started during each VEXcode VR session.
From the Toolbar
To start a project from the Toolbar, select the “Start” button. The Playground window will open automatically if it is not already open.
Once the “Start” button is selected, the project will run and the VR Robot will perform the programmed actions in the Playground. The “Start” button will remain grayed out while the project is running. The project must be stopped before it can be run again.
From the Playground Window
To start a project from the Playground window, first ensure that the Playground window is open. To open the Playground window, select the Playground button in the Toolbar.
Then, select the Start button. Once the Start button is pressed, the project will run and the VR Robot will perform the programmed actions in the Playground.
The Start button will be replaced with the Stop button while the project is running. The project must be stopped before it can be run again.
How to Stop a Project
