New to programming and Arduino.. I'm currently making a project for my son's Gold Rush diorama with added electronics. From my understanding, it does not like reading delay() codes.
Please, any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.
I'm trying to combine two sketches; One that has random fluctuating LEDS (acts as the lanterns in the mine shafts) The other, a servo that pulls a string up and down (acts as an elevator pulley)
Each sketch alone works properly. I'm not sure the proper way to combine the two without using "delay()"
Leds sketch below;
/*random fluctuating leds*/
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
pinMode(12,LOW);
pinMode(11,LOW);
pinMode(10,LOW);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
analogWrite(12, random(120)+135);
analogWrite(11, random(120)+135);
analogWrite(10, random(120)+135);
delay(random(100));
}

#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo
// twelve servo objects can be created on most boards
int pos = 0; // variable to store the servo position
void setup()
{
myservo.attach(9); // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object
}
void loop()
{
for(pos = 0; pos <= 180; pos += 1) // goes from 0 degrees to 180 degrees
{ // in steps of 1 degree
myservo.write(pos); // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
delay(15); // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
}
for(pos = 180; pos>=0; pos-=1) // goes from 180 degrees to 0 degrees
{
myservo.write(pos); // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
delay(15); // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
}
}
