Re: Autonomous Mode

Well, since this is the rumor mill, I'll tell you what I've been hearing.

FIRST is attempting to make autonomous a bigger part of the game (you all obviously know this), but from my understanding the want it in the actual game- as in autonmous functions (such as picking something up without using the controls, arms that are self-guided, etc) that take place during play, not before (or after).

That would be one of the biggest reasons for switching to C. Being able to define functions externally from the main program and such is a rather nice feature.

meh, thats just my $.01 (I just paid college applications, i couldn't afford two cents).
