I'm making a crane. I've put a DCS with an advanced mover on it's board. I connected the left stick L/R output to the advanced mover and it moves the crane 'house", the section where the crane op sits, left and right no problem. I connected the right stick up/down from the DCS to a winch, But as soon as I connect a winch to the crane housing (the part that moves L/R) I can't use the DCS to move the crane left or right. It just doesn't work. I can have L/R or U/D but not both, what am I doing wrong. Also, does anyone know how to make a magnet. I want my crane to be like the huge magnetic cranes used in junk yards. I tried using a Follower with a color tag and the matching tag on the pieces I need to lift, but it doesn't work. Thanks.

Well for the magnet, make sure you have the tag on the crane magnet itself. All the scrap pieces need to have the sensors with a followerAND antigravity.

Set the winch, piston or whatever to speed scale.

Hmmm, some setting must be tweaked, because in theory it should work perfectly. Are you sure the winch and mover are set to the right type of input (directional). I would recommend either using 2 analog sticks, or setting the DCS to transmitter and using 2 receivers, one for U/D and one for L/R. I'll let you know if I come up with a simpler solution. I hope this helps out.
