Re: What do your programmers do when programming has finished?

What is "finished"? Can't make your shooting more accurate? Automate more actions? Drivetrain perfect? Totally optimized? Totally documented? Commented and simple to change? Never have any issues/bugs? Are you using every second on that autonomous period? Does your drive team have any other ideas? Is there more training you can do, of your own programmers or in helping other teams? Any old or off-season bots you can work on bettering? Any new controls you're interested in (this is a major hobby or our team)?

There's always more to do! There are ancillary activities you can do as well, but all our sub-teams find it valuable to continue looking for ways to improve our current season goals/performance (unless training gaps are dire). I guarantee you'll be blown away with some of what they come up with--as long as they save the old code versions!
