I am thinking of getting a few PIC micro controllers (I've just read the FAQ sheet) to build a car simulator for my year 12 HSC work (I'm an Aussie.) I have no idea how to write programs in anything other then Basic and Python (I've been using basic for as long as I've been programming.) and think it'll be using mikroBasic. The problem I'm having is that I'll have lots of different subsystems so I'll need communications with multiple PIC chips, Is there a way I can send a variable over from one chip to another? What would be the easiest way of doing this?
Also, is there a way to get variables to be received from the parallel port on a computer? This is needed to send data from the engine into the environment.
Thanks for all your help, Scott
