Actual position and Commanded position differ, using cia402

I checked the userkins.comp file, found nothing strange, but in userkins.c, it was

int kinematicsForward ...
   ...
    pos->tran.x = j[0]/80; // X coordinate
    pos->tran.y = j[1]/80; // Y coordinate
    pos->tran.z = j[2]/80; // Z coordinate

while in userkins.comp or either of the kinematicsInverse functions, the /80 was not there. I tried compiling again, nothing changed. I tried deleting the /80 from userkins.c, everything is now working. I just have no idea why..

Weird.

Often with programming, huge problems are caused by like 3 wrong characters.

Perhaps it was some temporary fix that was not removed as it should have been?

C is a good language, better than Python IMO.

(Python always complains about not converting tabs to spaces, which I despise)

Could be, but I can't figure out where it's coming from, so looks like I'm stuck with a temporary fix of a possible temporary fix for now.

I remember Python giving me so much grief over the tabs and spaces in my first year of learning to program! At least these days IDEs take care of that problem.

C just went completely over my head when I tried to learn it. I can mostly read it but I cannot write anything in C, it's pretty frustrating

Oh thanks! you're right that halcompile is having some problem, userkins.c is unchanged after I run. There's nothing in the terminal that hints at it not working.

Compiling realtime userkins.c
Linking userkins.so
cp userkins.so /usr/lib/linuxcnc/modules/

I've attached the userkins.comp file here

C isn't so hard, try it!

It's a nice, simple language.

Try out Arduino, it'll teach you to be a C master.

You'll start to end sentences with a ";" after while!

I am so confused. the setup does still works after I deleted userkins.c, so the problem must have come from the old userkins.so. According to our git history, userkins.comp never changed, and we did run halcompile when we set up the project, so I don't see why userkins.so changed. Not important, maybe someone accidentally copied an older version from somewhere.

As for the other issues with userkins, I don't know, this is how I received the configuration. I'm slowly trying to figure things out.
 

I've learned C for a semester in university, didn't get it at all. It was so not nice to me.

I do program Arduinoes these days, because the other colleagues don't want to, but isn't that C++? Any way I hate it too

When I need C I use Rust instead, it's a pain too but at least I can usually figure out where I made a mistake. Which is usually forgetting the ';'
