So, I'm trying to test autonomous code, yet for some reason whenever I switch to autonomous it automatically disables it and doesn't let me enable it. Anyone know what's up with that?

Most likely the "watchdog"(a safety system that prevents a crashed robot from just taking off in some random direction) is detecting a failure and shutting down the system. Check to make sure that you are feeding the watchdog--if you are, you likely have some condition in your autonomous that is causing the system to lag or crash.

Alright, I'll check it out, thanks a bunch. :)

The LabVIEW Frameworks have the autonomous code disabled by default and you get the blinking light.

There's a little True/False feeding the outside of the loop that comes set to False to prevent auto code from running.
