sequence_shots and shot_groups?

[Greg Sealby]

I'm having an issue where it seems I can't use a sequence_shot in a shot_group.  

I get the following error:

Device left_orbit_shot of type shots not defined Error Code: CFE-ConfigValidator-6

I'm trying to add my orbit shot into a shot group for one of my modes.  It has two rollover switches.

If I have to configure shots with switches I can't see how I can use the orbit shot in the shot_group.

Is there something I need to change, or is there a better way to do this?

Shot groups only support shots. But you can use a sequence_shot in a shot (via its event) and put that shot into the group.

Thanks Jan, that works.

I added a shots: section to my mode and used the hit_events: setting to reference my sequence_shot that I created in my base mode.

Here's my code:

shots:

    shot_hc_left_horseshoe:

        hit_events: shot_left_horseshoe_hit

    shot_hc_right_horseshoe:

        hit_events: shot_right_horseshoe_hit

    shot_hc_orbit_left:

        hit_events: shot_orbit_left_hit

    shot_hc_orbit_right:

        hit_events: shot_orbit_right_hit

    shot_hc_dt:

        hit_events: shot_dt_complete

    shot_hc_tow:

        hit_events: shot_tow_hit

shot_groups:

    shot_hc_1:

        shots: shot_hc_left_horseshoe, shot_hc_orbit_left, shot_hc_dt

I hope this helps others.
