We've got 2bits of variable space left.

We're using a separate Init and Main program for manual driving and can select up to 4 autonomous programs into run slots 2-5.

...'course, getting good working auton code has been "interesting"...

We were using Tim Tedrow's generic PID code, but maxed out on program space in the main and autonomous banks and just about filled up the scratch pad ram. At one point we were down to 10bytes of code space...couldnt even put in a debug!

So we're in the process of "hardwiring" just the parts of the PID control code we're actually going to use on our effectors. That buys back about 15% in our manual and autonomous banks.

That first Thursday at Regionals'll be fun - as always!
