controllables.Laser

class controllables.Laser(port: Optional[int] = None)

Reference to a laser part.

If a laser is assigned to port 0 in the properties tab of the microcontroller, then that laser can be accessed with Laser(0).

turn_on()

Turns the laser on.

from controllables import Laser
import time

laser = Laser(0)

laser.turn_on()

time.sleep(1)

laser.turn_off()

turn_off()

Turns the laser off.

Note

This doesn’t prevent transmitters or properties from turning the laser on.

from controllables import Laser
import time

laser = Laser(0)

laser.turn_on()

time.sleep(1)

laser.turn_off()

property color: color.Color

The color of the Laser.

from controllables import Laser
import time
from color import Color

laser = Laser(0)

#assign color with a preset color name
laser.color = "red"
laser.turn_on()
time.sleep(2)

laser.turn_off()
time.sleep(1)

#assign color with Color object
laser.color = Color(1,0,0)
laser.turn_on()
time.sleep(2)

laser.turn_off()
time.sleep(1)

#assign color with hexcode string
laser.color = "#ff0000"
laser.turn_on()

is_on() → bool: Whether the laser is currently activated.

name() → str

Returns the user editable name of the controllable as found in the properties tab of the game.
