The addition of dragging the RC's almost certainly affects the needed code to help the robot to maintain a proper path. Did that addition affect your consistency with the totes?

The three totes and the first two containers are relatively consistent. The third container can definietly use some work, but we also have an autonomous that just does 3 tote 2 container that we can run in the event an alliance partner can bring a tote in.
I'm not much of a programmer but here's what I understand. We're using distance, angle, and angle lock (maintain angle even through uneven weight distribution and container drag) PIDs to compensate for the dragging RCs.
