Ya I use it for organization too. I am just angry with it b/c last year I had to write the same long routine for 3 identical mechanisms. I almost ran out of EEPROM space (I didnt want to mess with a new page). I thought about simulating a function call, but that takes extra RAM. Also, due to a couple of connections btw the variables and other routines, I couldnt use scratchpad. Last years bot had way to many features out of the box and we quickly eliminated many of them.
