Re: Command Based vs Simple Robot

I was against the Command Based Template at the beginning for the same reason. However looking back on it, the time saved and time using the CommandBased Structure was great. It is a great structure well built and simple to use once you know some basic Java.

The programming team is always the one on crunch time at the end when the physical design is done. Unless you are able to really get a format/structure together on your own (Probably would have had to been done offseason) then go ahead with it, otherwise I would highly stress the Command Based Structure.
