Re: There are things I don't know...

Thanks for the help. I have learned a few things

a) comm data from the DS is latched. This pushes more code out of TeleOp and nto PeriodicTasks, which seems like a good thing

b) The robot project remembers too much - on the Dashboard in Test mode, I saw old and new motors after I had changed the names. Blasted the build directory, old refs went away.

c) I see good axis data (after eliminating the globals) going into WPI Arcade Drive, but the wrong stuff out. I am beginning to suspect that Arcade Drive and Tank Drive cannot coexist on the same hardware connections at the same time. Tomorrows testing will probably reveal that ya cannot switch between Arcade and Tank on the fly.
