Hi, I am developing a dashboard UI for a toy car. I have it partially working. The problem that I am trying to solve is that as the forward icon is pressed the speed increases, which is fine, when I press the stop icon is pressed the motor stops, which is fine. However, when I press the forward button again the speed increments from the last value, it does not reset. I am not sure how to achieve this on the template or in the function nodes, can anyone assist?
