current position resets to 0 #5

Closed tkottary closed 4 years ago

How do I resume the tic at the last position after the tic was powered off? I am using tic to drive a stepper motor which does not work if the position is negative. Given that tic reset to 0, I don't have any workaround to this.

If you know what position your Tic was in when you powered it off, you can use the --halt-and-set-position option of ticcmd to set its current position. if that does not answer your question, please post on our forum with more details about what you are doing, what the Tic is doing, and what you want the Tic to do. GitHub issues like this are used to keep track of specific bugs and feature requests for the Tic software.
