I think you misunderstood what I meant.

In each update loop two methods were being called:
Code:
updateImmutableDashboardValues();
updateValuesFromDashboard();
The intent is for values that are not explicitly allowed to change from the dashboard are updated in the first method. In the second method we get any changed values from the Dashboard.

We are not directly interacting with NetworkTables in any way other than through the SmartDashboard and LiveWindow classes.

We will be doing a bit of testing, we think it is the way we used it that made it a problem. Tests will be done, likely at competition since they are quick and well.. we don't have access to the robot anymore.
