Hi @Orma115 — welcome to the forum1 Your basic idea seems pretty reasonable.

It may be easiest to test your work using the “Multi Editor”: [https://makecode.com/multi#](https://makecode.com/multi#) . Below are two partial example projects to help you test your idea. (I’ve intentionally only shown how to send radio messages and am only using a slight variation on your existing work). I suggest you:

1. Open Project One and click the “Edit” button: [https://makecode.microbit.org/\_d4MgoRUp5a0D](https://makecode.microbit.org/_d4MgoRUp5a0D)
2. Open Project Two and click the “Edit” button: [https://makecode.microbit.org/\_39wPP7VXzEzq](https://makecode.microbit.org/_39wPP7VXzEzq)
3. Close both and open the Multi Editor: [https://makecode.com/multi#](https://makecode.com/multi#)
4. Select Project One in the left pane of the Multi Editor and Project Two in the right pane.
5. Tinker/test both programs until you have the type of communication you want.
6. Then try to integrate the hardware that will operate the vibration. There are a variety of ways to connect haptic feedback / vibration motors. Here’s one example: [https://learn-en.readthedocs.io/en/latest/microbitOctopus/output/octopus\_ef04074.html](https://learn-en.readthedocs.io/en/latest/microbitOctopus/output/octopus_ef04074.html)
  1. I’d suggest starting with an empty project and doing _just_ the vibration work (in response to a button being pressed) until you have it behaving the way you want. Then add the vibration work into the radio work.

Good luck with the project!  
Bill
