FIRST Chat Scouting

Hey Everybody,

My scouting system is fully ready for this year!! But, yet again, I need teams to contribute their knowledge of their robots.

Help your team and other teams scout, by entering information on your robot here.

Please reply with any questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions below.

Thanks,
Quentin Sheets

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

This will be extremely useful. The Regional & team lists are great. I had a problem when I tried to submit a team number into the robot inventory; the screen flashed & no results were given. I'll try again later. Thanks for all the work that went into making the site.

I cannot fix it from my current location. But it will be fixed promptly at 4:00 PM EST.

UPDATE: Apparently this is an isolated incident only affecting Internet Explorer... FIXED

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

The site looks great!

One suggestion, and I'm not sure how hard this would be to do having no experience with websites, but something under the full team list page: http://firstchat.ath.cx:81/resources...php?page=teams
where it indicates whether a team had entered information about their bot, maybe a star, or bold or something.

Overall I really like the idea. This should really streamline scouting. Could be the next TBA!

Nice looking layout, I added a few things for our team. :)

No support for Michigan events though (On the "scouting" page anyways)? :confused:

I added a pic but I don't think it is showing up. Can someone look up 342 and see if it loaded?

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

This will be a great tool for all teams to use as a reference for scouting.
It'll also hopefully help teams without scouts and rookie teams have a pool of information that would usually be out of their hands.
Great Job!

You may have missed the second selection box on the scouting page that is only Michigan events. :yikes:

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

I agree that it would be useful to have an indicator on the Robot Inventory page for each event showing which robots have info about them entered and which do not.

Otherwise, the site looks pretty useful!

Q. Sheets

20-02-2009 23:59

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

For those of you who want an indicator, each event now has one. Links to Robot Inventory pages without information submitted to them are now highlighted in red as can be seen from this example: http://firstchat.ath.cx:81/resources...=GG&page=robot

You should add an option of propulsion and traction control to the movement part

turreted shooting might also be nice

Embedded video would be pretty slick, but is it still possible if not every video was from YouTube? I've seen people use Vimeo, myspace, and google video so far this year.

Great job on making this.

Vimeo, YouTube, Google and MySpace videos are now all enabled to be put on Robot Inventory pages

You only enter the ID in the box not the whole URL. I fixed the link and it should show properly now.

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

UPDATE:

Those events with webcasts, now have their webcasts along with a link to the hosting site posted. For example: the Midwest Regional

Also, the match lists for tomorrow should automatically update, but if they don't there is still a link to add them manually.

Re: FIRST Chat Scouting

can you rig up something to update the scores based on the #frcfms or FRC-Spy feeds?

I'm working on something, but you might be much faster.

Thank you for noticing this... as of right now it is fixed and all team pages are locked from updates until either I finish the register/login scripts and/or I add a captcha script to the website.

If any team has information that needs updating, just PM me.

The correct info

Autonomous: drive straight, then spin.

I really like the database. Thanks and nice job!

I noticed that it said that we went 6-1 in the qualifications in NY when we went 7-0 because the penalty didnt count do to slight error with the rules that was made.(In reality we only got one penalty instead of 2)
