    I just recently installed simtools 2.3.1 but my simulator stopped moving. I can't figure our what's wrong, it was running fine when I am on 2.1. Please help

    I uploaded the axis assignment file as well as the seial interface file and I was wondering if there's anyone who can help me figure out what's wrong. Maybe its syntax error?

    Or if anyone has the installation file for simtools2.1 that I can reinstall and make my simulator work again. Thank you so much for your help

    Not sure if you figured it out but I had the same issue when upgrading from 2.1. If you are using SCN make sure in interface settings you are using assigned axis ID=0. All other settings from 2.1 should be the same.

    Simply un-assign your SCN actuators and reboot GameEngine.
    Then resetup as needed. (and @Shannon is correct, use the spots where ID=0 to resetup).
    Take care!
