Hi everyone, I am new here and loved reading many of your posts!
About a month ago, I decided to try to connect to my newly acquired Powered Up train via bluetooth on my own computer.
The goal was to be able to control all of my train at once, and better, program complex behaviors. The forum was a huge source of inspiration, but if you are not a programer, just technical chat.
What I set myself to achieve is to create a program that would be user-friendly and capable of connecting to any number of Powered Up & SBrick devices! 1 month later, I am happy to report that I have built a complete custom solution to achieve just that with "The Lego Train Project".
Here is a video that shows you an example of how the software works: With it you can:  - Control as many hubs as you own at the same time, creating a centralize solution for your trains, switches and other sensors/motors.
 - Read color from color sensor mounted on each trains
 - Create (color or distance) sensor related events that can activate actions on any other hubs of the network
 - Create C# sequences that compile and run dynamicly! I am building a fairly complex train automation project with it for my own layout, but would love if other would be interested to test it Edit - Source Code is out - June 27th 2020! The project has now been renamed "BAP" short for Brick Automation Project.
The source code is now freely available here: https://github.com/Cosmik42/BAP Edit - V0.3.1 is out - 01/08/19
Minor update includes: - Code editor improvement - Fix Hub not showing up on certain configurations
