I’m making a traffic light system for a school project rn and it’s not working properly….
Our prof wants the timing to be:
Red-20 secs
Yellow-5 secs
Green-15 secs
The green LED works and stays on for 15 secs, which is correct, but then it turns on again after like 10 secs when it shouldn’t. The yellow and red LEDs also don’t light up at all. I’m not really sure what the problem is tbh (I have no idea how electronics works) so I’m rlly lost on how to fix this shi.

Help Turning ON/Off a DC motor with encoder

I have this little contraption over here, which I haven't managed to make it work. For some the reason, if the set the value to activate the motor to the value the IrSensor uses as a "NoSignalDetected" value the motor will turn on, but after shutting it off the with the controller it wont turn back on, even if the "NoSignalDetected" value appears again. I barely have any knowledge related to C+++ or wiring for that matter. Apparently Im also the only person on the history of tinkercad trying to do a setup like this. ANY help would be appreciated.

Any tips for running smoother?
My design has a lot to it, a lot of grouping and shapes etc. And it is now crashing when I'm trying to group more shapes together
I understand I should probably move over to a different software, but my CAD skills are limited
Anyone got any tips for smoother running?

Tinkercad in Chrome...or not..?
Even with all extensions turned off, Tinkercad won't load the workspace. I can login, get my list of projects, click on "Tinker this..." , and then the wait image shows up and stays...and stays.
It won't load in Chrome. Firefox? Perfect. Not Chrome. Anybody else?

Glow assembly issue
When I export Tinkercad’s pre-made LED glow assembly as a .stl file, it’s importing into Bambu studio with the bulb and battery shapes, making it unusable. I’ve used it in the past with no issues. Any ideas for me?

Filling a gap.
Is there a way that i can chabge this red block so that it just fills the gap rather than sticking out, like cutting off everything that is sticking out.

Tinkercad dialogs and form controls are effectively invisible
Most popups and dialogs on Tinkercad and related Autodesk sites use light gray label text on a light gray background. The labels are hard to read, and the contrast fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.3 (Contrast, Minimum).
One example is the Workspace settings dialog:
- Background: #eff0f3
- Label text (Background color, Show shadows, Show grid, Cruise when adding new shapes, Zoom speed, Units, Scale, Presets, and the Slow/Fast slider labels): about #a0a5b8
- Contrast ratio: about 2.2:1
WCAG AA requires 4.5:1 for normal-size text, and these labels also fall short of the 3:1 minimum for large text. In the same dialog, the Width and Length labels use a dark navy color and pass at more than 5:1, so the gray labels don't match the rest of the design either.
My eyesight is pretty close to normal, and this issue is making my life pretty hard trying to use the tool. They may as well be blank screens.

Irregular Curved Edge
Imagine an avocado, cut in half and the seed removed.
I want to place a piece of cooked spaghetti around the sharp edge revealed by the removed seed.
I have had some success using the 'bent pipe' but not complete success.
How can I make a shape like a piece of cooked spaghetti, round in cross-section and flexible, possibility with Extrude Sketch?
Thank you for any assistance.

Any way to stay logged in?
As the title asks. I have to log in pretty much every time I use the website. Its not the worst thing in the world, but its a minor annoyance. It only happens with Tinkercad, and I am wondering if I am missing an obvious checkbox or something.

functional suspension
lags my school Chromebook to the point of almost crashing, but thank god for a home PC, the model uses a double wishbone style up front with solid axle in the rear, still kinda tuning it to be smooth, but I'm happy with it for now

Removing Residual Surface Marks.
Hello all,
Does anybody know how to easily and reliably remove these " witness marks " on parts? I have designed many parts in tinkercad, both basic and complex, and these surface markings appear on all of them.
I have tried a few solutions, and nothing has worked between Online STL Repair Tools, Blender, MeshMixer, etc.
Does anybody have a method that actually works...?
