Re: What was your teams worst expierence during competition?
This year at IRI, we re-calibrated our autonomous and ended up changing the power value for the shooter motors. When we built the code and deployed it to the robot, all the code got corrupted. Our programmer had to try to rewrite our entire robot code in the half hour or so we had before our first match. In the end he didn't have time, and we ended up playing the match with no control over our pneumatics, and both joysticks inverted. Probably the most stressed I have ever been at a competition. Luckily we had enough of a break for him to fix it before our next match. Still had a lot of problems that weekend, but it just felt like a terrible omen to have that happen right before our first match at our first time at IRI.
