Really, really, seriously clueless.

We are trying to get the autonomous mode to work. The problem is we have no clue where to begin. We don't even know where to find the source code that is supposed to be on the FIRST site, or so we've been told.

Basically, we need a STEP BY STEP guide on how to begin our autonomous programming. We need to know how to initialize an autonomous mode, how to set it up to follow sensors, and how to set up a programmed list of directions (i.e. "Move forward 10 feet, turn 30 degrees, etc.")

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Click on "FIRST Robotics" then on "Documents" at the top. The source is on that page.

Look in ChiefDelphi's white papers for help on getting started...there are 3-4 papers on just that.

If you need more help, PM me and I'll be glad to help.
