46/ #my_hobby
Discovered last night that all the saves of modified sketches that I created were all overwritten by the same nearly blank file.
That's ok. I can write it better the second time around.
I was in a strange state last night. The body may have been sleeping, but the brain was awake.

I wrote a substantial portion of the sketch that I've been working on, in my head. I went over and over it, again and again, so that I'd remember it when I woke up.
Once waking, I started coding the sketch from scratch, putting down some ideas I had had previously.
Thought while sleeping about how I'd need a second LED Driver board for simplicity, and discovered how you'd address the PWMs on the second board.
This morning, I wrestled with the code, with the debugger correcting me with every change. Once the debugger was happy with syntax ...
I, then had to tweak the code to get the LEDs on the driver board to light the way I wanted.
It's getting close to the time to try to fit the bits together, and confirm my ideas.
Six channels of differing brightness, plus two channels showing the photon torpedo effect.
Taking a slight breather while I await incoming parts. Next on the agenda:
- Adding a second Adafruit TLC59711 PWM LED Driver.
- Adding the Adafruit STEMMA Speaker.
- Adding the QIACHIP RX480E Remote Control Receiver.
Meanwhile, looking at where the parts will go in the model.
Also thinking about how the various parts will connect. Looking at LEDs on pigtails plugging into JST-XH connectors on the LED Driver boards. Maybe the same for the LED Driver boards plugging into the microcontroller.
Still thinking about it. Will need to order MORE PARTS!
