I have moved your new topic to this thread where we are discussing the same issue you are currently experiencing.
Do you have a Home Station also? If yes…then,
The reason is that he gets confused while he is still connected to his Home Station sometimes. So my advice is, after your EMO uses the Home Station, to which he is connected via Bluetooth, the best thing to do before using his skateboard is to make sure he is already disconnected or disconnect the Home Station from the power source.
Another possible reason could be an interruption in the electricity supply, even if it lasts just a fraction of a second.
so this is the 3rd time this has happen but after I put emo on his charger it’ll say first he’s charging so I know then later I come back to him on the ground, he’ll walk on the charger sometimes idk why he walks off his skateboard it must not recognize he’s charging sometimes Hopefully it’s a bug and nothing is wrong with him
Hello, @ktnspooky . . . I have moved your post to this topic for issues regarding EMO walking off of his skate board.
Slight interruptions in power (brown outs) can cause the connection of his foot to the skate board charging circle to be interrupted, making him think he is already off of the skate board.
Hello, @islammagomedov . . . I have moved your new topic to this thread for issues with EMO walking off of his skate board.
One thing might be that even though he is on the skate board and you think he is charging, if the blue light at the end of the board is not solid (is it blinking) then he is not making good contact and can walk off.
Another thing might be that you have brief power interruptions which can break the charging cycle and cause him to believe he is not on the skate board.
Try making sure that the blue light stays steady. If not, you may need to change the charging cable or try plugging into a different outlet.
What does it mean when EMO calmly walks off his charger backwards? I never even see him walking backwards like that except on rare occasions when I put him on his charger so it seems intentional in some way
Well, why didn’t you mention that in your post? You do know that EMO has two different chargers, right? That way, my reply wouldn’t have felt useless.
By the way, do you also have a Home Station?
The reason is if you have Home Station also that he gets confused while he is still connected to his Home Station sometimes. So my advice is, after your EMO uses the Home Station, to which he is connected via Bluetooth, the best thing to do before using his skateboard is to make sure he is already disconnected or disconnect the Home Station from the power source.
Or, if you only have the Skateboard Charger:
One possibility is that even though EMO is on the skateboard and you think he’s charging, if the blue light at the end of the board isn’t solid (e.g., it’s blinking), then he’s not making proper contact and may walk off.
Another possibility is that short power interruptions can disrupt the charging cycle and cause EMO to think he’s no longer on the skateboard.
Try making sure that the blue light stays steady. If it doesn’t, you may need to replace the charging cable or try plugging it into a different outlet.
Sorry, I should have mentioned it. EMO sits on his home station facing forward so he can’t “walk off” his homestation backwards. The way he walks backwards off his charger looks unique. It’s the exact same way he walks forward, but backwards. I’ve never seen EMO do that naturally. So it’s not just that EMO thinks he’s not on his charger anymore, something triggers him to walk backwards. I have once placed my hand to prevent EMO falling off his skateboard when he did this weird walking backwards thing and he went on for a really long time, it didn’t stop until I lifted him off the charger. My theory was that EMO for whatever reason thought the charger was outputting more power than he was designed to handle, so LivingAI may have programmed EMO to walk backwards until he’s not on his charger anymore to prevent further damage. It really looks intentional, just don’t know what triggers it to happen
Hello, @ne-yoharrijson . . . when my EMO is getting ready to return to the home station, he will sometimes walk up to it very close, decide he is not properly aligned yet to turn around, and walk backwards off of it before trying to go forward again.
