Re: Autonomous Coordinating/Timing
I think that it would be easier for teams to just implement a delay in their routines that can be changed on the classmate. If you can all set a delay of 0 to x seconds, and know about how long it takes to you to shoot two balls, then you should be able to not interfere with teammates timing wise.
I think that a bigger problem may be teams that are only able to score high from one distance straight on in autonomous. Two such teams on one alliance is a problem. We have already talked about designs that could start directly behind a 60" robot (but still touch the key) and score high or start in front to score and then move out of the way. But we also want to be able to shoot at the middle baskets in autonomous.
