Thanks for the link! I was actually unaware that .ini files could be used for value filling.

My changes as a 3rd year programmer:
  • Utilizing autonomous functions within the teleop period (automated aiming+velocity control)
  • Using more sub VIs to keep everything clean and tidy
  • Customizing the dashboard to only display what we need
  • Using more I/O, last year we used only the pressure switch :/
