Bonjour amigo's
I am working on a new project that I need help with, I am prototyping a new setup for a big wheel Lotto game. It features a wheel of RGB's 24 of them, and 8 RGB's in a wheel inside the large wheel of 24. The Purpose of the game is to make a selection from the 8 RGB Wheel and then press spin to make the RGB's in the outer larger wheel go around in a circle more than 5 times and then coming to a stop at a random spot in the wheel that is compared to the 1 in 8 selected. If the number reduced to 8ths match then you win.
Here is my wiring schematic.
and here is my code so far.
/* This Project is a big Led light wheel with a smaller led light wheel in the center.
* the big wheel has 24 RGB's and the inner "selection" wheel has 8 RGB's
* the point is to select a RGB with a Pot in the inner smaller ring
* and have it match or try to match the end of the loop of LED's
* when they stop at a random place. So if user selects place number 5 for example
* then they need the wheel to stop at place 12 trough 15 in the outer ring.
* I will be adding a third strand of RGB's to add some flare to getting a match
* or not getting a match. I would like the outer RGB Ring to go around at least
* 5 times before having a random number from 1 to 24 multiply lets say another
* 3 times around so it will reach a random spot on every spin. THen a button resets the
* action. So the pot selects from 1 to 8 and the first button begins the leds in the outer ring
* going round and then they are brought to a stop at a random location that is compared
* to the user selected number in the first ring of 1 to 8. Each number from 1 to 8 in the
* inner ring has 3 spots on the outer ring that would be a match, so it looks a little like a dart board A simple game of
* guess the number with ws2812b's

The code needs work. I need to be able to spin through the 24 RGB strand more than 5 times and then stop randomly at any spot in the strip. Then I need to compare the result to "pick" integer and have a third light strip light green on matches and red on wrongs. When the reset button is push and its back to the start I want the third strip to Flicker on white. any thoughts or help would be great.
For correct matches
