controllables.BubbleMachine

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

Reference to a bubble machine part.

The following example assumes a bubble machine is assigned to port 0 of the microcontroller

from time import sleep
from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)

emit()

Emits a single bubble burst.

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
bblMachine.emit()

auto_emit(set: bool)

Set auto emit on/off

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
bblMachine.emit_rate = 10
bblMachine.auto_emit(True)
sleep(5)
bblMachine.auto_emit(False)

property emit_rate: float

The rate of emission (ranging 1-10).

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
bblMachine.emit_rate = 10
bblMachine.auto_emit(True)

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
print(f'emit rate: {bblMachine.emit_rate:0.1f}')

property particles_per_emission: float

Particles per emission (ranging 1-5).

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
bblMachine.particles_per_emission = 5
bblMachine.auto_emit(True)

from controllables import BubbleMachine

bblMachine = BubbleMachine(0)
print(f'power: {bblMachine.particles_per_emission:0.1f}')

name() → str

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

The following example assumes that any controllable or sensor is assigned to port 0 and prints out its name.

from ports import PortReference

print(PortReference(0).name())
