Re: Mechanum Problems...

Last years mecanum code was slightly more advanced than this years. Last years code allowed for a scaled (X,Y) cartisian input. This year the mecanum drive requires a direction and magnitude vector to operate. Some simple geometry (A^2 + B^2 = C^2) can get you back to that system, but you need to provide a direction and magnitude for the the new mecanum version to operate.
