Re: THE HORROR! THE HORROR!
Being the programmer last year, and the one on disaster control at the time of the incident at the WPI Regional last year, I can speak in greater detail to the issues we experienced.
It was round 3 of the quarterfinals. Only mild issues with initial FMS connection were experienced at any point prior to the issue. Auton executed as expected. When transitioning from Auton Disabled to Teleop Enabled, the robot began spinning in a tight circle, and was not responding to any driver commands.
Later inspection from the FTA, CSA, as well as a National Instruments rep yielded no result. The code was ruled out as a non-issue.
EDIT - We later attempted to replicate the failure using FMS simulation software provided to us by the CSA. All attempts at replication failed.
