Problem with robot code

NKGold (14)
The problem is that Im trying to get rid of a gap in the output(at bottom) but to do so I need to get rid of the first endl under the case'W' but if I do that the output will get worse.

At the bottom I'll put the output I'm trying to get, the output I'm getting, and the output I'll get if i get rid of the endl.

The inputs are:
S B U U W R R W D D W D D W M T R T

CORRECT OUTPUT:

RIGHT RIGHT

DOWN DOWN
POS = (2,0)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
POS = (2,0)
BAD COMMAND 'B' IGNORED.
TERMINATED AT POSITION (2,0)


CURRENT OUTPUT:

STARTED AT POSITION (0,0)
BAD COMMAND 'B' IGNORED.
UP UP
POS = (0,2)
RIGHT RIGHT
POS = (2,2)
DOWN DOWN
POS = (2,0)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
// trying to get rid of this gap
POS = (2,0)
BAD COMMAND 'M' IGNORED.
TERMINATED AT POSITION (2,0)


OUTPUT WITHOUT the endl:

STARTED AT POSITION (0,0)
BAD COMMAND 'B' IGNORED.
UP UP POS = (0,2)
RIGHT RIGHT POS = (2,2)
DOWN DOWN POS = (2,0)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
DOWN BAD MOVE TO (2,-1)
POS = (2,0)
BAD COMMAND 'M' IGNORED.
TERMINATED AT POSITION (2,0)
