Re: PILOT Signals

Here is my opinion as a previous driver now retired let me know what other former drivers think, so first time drivers can start off on a good foot.

As far as human player to driver communication was for me was null if I was watching the human player I wasn't watching tHe robot and there for not driving/ doing somthing that would be beneficial instead times waisting. And saMe would go for the HP if they were watching me then there not doing somthing benificial perhaps pulling a gear, all communication should come from two people.
A. Operators direct opservation of the field, and mechanism function.
B. Drive coach's direct observation from the field therefore the driver keeps there eyes on the robot, the entire match and can still listen through there ears the communication.
The coach and driver need to keep track of gears. Not the HP communication is alot quicker this way aswell

That just what makes sense to me and what seems most efficient times wise/ accuracy wise but you all may think differently let me know!
