Hello everyone, our team was wondering if we could switch between 2 autonomous codes before each round of the competition depending on what defenses that we want to breach. If so, how do you switch between the 2 codes on the driver station without using the USB to Roborio cord?

Answer of switching auto codes:

Nothing prohibits this.


Answer to the rest of the question: You could use a switch on the robot, a switch on the driver's station, and have your code read what the switch is set to right at the start of auto.

We are using a Sendable Chooser, which you can learn about in the link above. Essentially, you can add different auto options, and then in the setup before a match, you choose whatever option you want from the SmartDashboard. Hope this helps! :)
