    Hello, The P0 button will not work with the MakeCode extension. A triangle error message shows up. (This can be seen on the sample code you posted too.) All of the other buttons work. Is there any way to solve this?

    • Hi,

      I talked with you through e-mail and we were able to resolve the issue. Looking online when the issue first was reported, there was a recent update to the MakeCode Editor which broke a few things. I fixed the bug with a patch in v0.0.8. The gamer:bit extension works as expected with the examples using the controller:bit/gamer:bit. All associated tutorials and GitHub repos have been updated.

      If you need to update any of your custom examples easily, try looking here => https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/getting-started-with-the-microbit#update. It's rare when we need to do that (I've had to do this twice in the last 3 years since this comment). Or check out this GIF below:

      Enjoy! =)
