Quick Start Guide

If you build this robot as a tower instead of
a train, it still works, but it’s no longer stable:
approach the Distance Sense block and the
Drive Action block starts moving. Accelerate
too quickly and the tower falls over.
You can fix this: add a block at the bottom
next to the Drive Action block. Any block will
do, but try one of the green blocks, either a
Passive block or a Blocker block.
Notice that you can build this Gobot in
different ways. If the Distance Sense block
faces the same direction that the Drive Action
block moves, your robot comes towards your
hand.
If you turn the Distance Sense so it faces the
opposite direction, it moves away. You can
chase it around with your hand or change the
direction of the wheels on the Drive Action
Block.
