Knut, (isn't that a royal name?)

I replied to your question on the discreet forum. It may be confusing, because frankly, the reactor controller is a litte confusing at first because there's not a lot of documentation. Anwyay, I posted a file with your rig re-worked to how I think you want it to go. If that's not the way you want it, let me know more details and I will try to answer questions you have.

I still think it would be easier to using wiring for the movement, unless you have to have very specific, intricate rotations which the sliders control.

Hello! Just answered your post @ discreet. Very informative indeed. Another reason why i did not use Wiring is that i felt more comfortable with reactor controllers. But i'll explore that a bit more too.

Wasn't Knut a great Viking king or something? I can't remember.

Yes, Knut The Mighty was King of Norway 1029-1030 A.D.

How did you know?

I don't know; I just remember it from somewhere. But, it must have been a good year for him to be remembered all this time.

Just to keep on topic, I see your point about using the reactor controller over wiring if you want control. It definitely gives you more. And personally, I'm a big fan of the reactor. Very powerful little controller. And ultimately, simple to use.
