I want to see the program too.

First, if I think I know what you are talking about, it is just like having a ball on a caster, it can spin in any way. You can get diagonal movement by powering 2 motors in different ways. Like to go NE, you just power the forward-backwards motor forward, and the sideways motor to the right. So, in theory, there is no limitation in movement.
Second, the program was thrown together at the last minute. The program is just a simple tank drive code with 2 sticks, and if you move the right stick left and right, it gives you sideways movement.
