I wanted to give the community an update about the status of UnoArduSim.
I have not been monitoring my UnoArduSim email for a number of years. I had a sudden reduction in vision due to AMD blisters and other upheavals in my personal life, and was not up to dealing with UnoArduSim support. And once I had let a backlog accumulate I was honestly too daunted to start up again in those circumstances. My apologies to those who have had unanswered queries.
Since 2022, I have had many eye treatments, and cataract surgeries, and am feeling more settled in my life, so want to get back again to UnoArduSim support as best I can. Please note that I have lost a good portion of my central vision so navigating a computer requires magnification, and text-to-speech output, and my reading and typing is so very much slower than before.
ASIDE: I only today discovered that a Google Drive security update in late October 2025 very likely had accidentally removed Public access from UnoArduSim_V2.9.2.zip on the Simulator Download page, and I have only just now restored/verified Public access (although it seems older zips seemed to be still accessible --it's all a bit unclear as no one had emailed me directly to report they did not have download access). I have recently received many Access Request emails, even in recent days, which leads me to believe that UnoArduSim_V2.9.2.zip has not been accessible for download in over a year. I apologize for that, and for loss of access to the About Me page that extended back even further in time (a Google Sites migration glitch I believe).
One quick note for now -- the version of the Q2WDBotSim bonus application included in the latest (V2.9.2) zip file on the Simulator Download page has a few quirks and bugs in the handling of ledge balls. Please be aware that I will be soon be posting a completely separate Q2WDBotSIm.zip for download and it will also contain a new folder of Sample Programs, and perhaps a bit more instruction.
Regards,
