Re: Can a compressor run during the match?

Re: Robot birthdays?
Robot birthdays should be bag day (granted everything works).
The first day it drives is kinda like a gestational period, it's developing working limbs and stuff but it's not fully developed.

Re: POV/Top Switch Programming for Java
Forgive me if I make things more confusing, but;
Is the joystick you're using the Logitech 3D one? If it is I believe it is just a hat switch, similar to the xBox controller. I hope this helps some.

Re: Painting Tires Legal?
You'd think they'd just have two sets of wheels painted different colors, no?
Anyways as long as you don't do that and you don't paint the actual tread you should be ok.

Re: Humorous wit from the GDC
I wonder if that's intentional or not. Things like "chute door" are only funny because they weren't forced and I feel like the chute door meme is being forced now.
