compile error

I'm fairly new to PlatformIO so may well be down to me! I'm not having issues and switching over to check that branch now just to make sure . Would there be some other settings in our visual code/platformio that could affect this?

First thing is that the software serial library looks to be at fault in your message, you'd expect that should just work without issue.

It's a strange one! I'd like to understand why the difference in behaviour though.
