This is what the move block looks like when it is in the workspace. Pretty simple but we have to be able to tell it exactly what we want it to do. So then we go down to this bar across the bottom.
With this panel we can tell it which port we want it to move(there are 3 ports we can hook motors to, B & C are default for wheels), which direction we want the motor to move, how much power, how long we want it to move(we can change this to degrees, seconds, rotations or unlimited) and if we want it to coast into the next action or brake immediately(this is mostly for if the next action is stop). You'll notice I left the steering out, we haven't figured this part out and decided that it is easier to just select one wheel and tell in how many degrees to go. We mostly use degrees to tell the robot how far to go because it is the most precise way to measure. The robot has a program on it that we can use to measure rotations or degrees.
