Paintball Board Software Types
I wrote a post on Paintball Headlines that had a side note about how paintball board software was done, and how I might write python scripts demonstrating both ways.
Well, I did. Here they are.
threaded.py runs the check in different threads while event.py only runs the check when an event occurs (the trigger is pulled). You can look a the source code of each to understand the differences.
These weren’t made or show that one way is better than the other, they just demonstrate both methods.
Do I know how they do it? No. I’m sure they aren’t running higher level language like python. If any board manufacturers want to let me know, please comment.
I’m also sure that actual board software is done much better, and not the work of some 20 year old hacking some code together in about an hour.
