On our actually robot the wheels are allowed to turn a little under a full revolution (330 ish degrees). For the robot code I have algorithms to deal with this but on the simulation code I just made the wheels point to where I want them to be. If you are world's, come to our pit and I'll be happy to fully explain how it works. If you aren't able to come to world's, I may be writing a white paper on the code when ever I have the time.

I believe it was done on a wire edm, but I'm not sure. I'm programming not mechanical, so I can't tell you for sure. If you can't stop by our pit at world's, then you can try to ask
in this thread.
