I agree, that's pretty excessive, but the software team uses the buttons to test specific parts of the code.
I don't have access to the code right now, so I don't know the specific button numbers/letters....
We've got
- Shooter Motor ON button
- Shooter Motor OFF button
- Hopper Loader button
- Loading extension Toggle button(commonly known as the "Tongue")
- Stutter Left (This allows the angle of the robot to be changed precisely) [Trigger]
- Stutter right (Same as above) [Trigger]
- Driving on the sticks
- A diagnostic Winch motor winding mechanism (For the climber)
- Everyone prefers not to use the buttons under the actual sticks themselves because they're hard to press without moving the robot
- We (Software Team) prefers not to use the digital D-Pad because it can also be used to dive the robot, if the controller is in the wrong mode...
- In addition to the gamepad, we have a custom control box that controls the majority of our climbing operations.
