Remember, this thread was inspired by the CheesyVision thread. That thread was all about a way to overcome some of the errors with FMS.

The biggest errors with FMS that are happening this year are timing related. The timing of hot goal activation, dynamic reflectors, hot goal duration, and even tele-op duration has been, well let's just say, a bit suspect this year. FIRST has appeared to improve it, but I don't believe they have made it "as advertised" just yet.

Honestly, I have not heard of any issues with "Alliance assignment", but if it did get messed up, that could potentially cause your robot to pursue the wrong ball and thus incur a HUGE penalty this year.
