Re: [oopic] OOPic-R limits?

Once the object memory is used up your only choice is to try to
optimize. As another poster said, using an external servo controller to
handle them. The ooPIC is not your best choice as a servo controller.
In the end, this is just a small PIC, and it can't do everything. I
would use a serial servo controller of some sort with a oSerialL object
to control it, that won't use much object memory. Then you can create
other objects for sensors and other processing needs. You can't expand
the object memory, so splitting off duties is your only option at this
point.
