If I remember correctly, Timer.delay() is a wrapper and simply calls Thread.sleep().
This causes the calling thread to sleep, and thus will cause your robot to hang unless called from a separate thread.
Use time stamps as mentioned.
System.getCurrentTimeMillis, or the FPGA timer, or anything else in a loop,
or spawn a separate thread and call thread.sleep() in the new thread.
But do not call Thread.sleep or Timer.Delay in the same thread as your TeleOp/Auto periodic functions.
Hope this helps,
Kevin
