Re: Serious OI problems
Did you "upgrade" to the new IFI firmware and loader? We had a similar problem after "upgrading". The default code would work, but all of our other code (that was working with the old firmware and loader) would just hang up. We wasted 6 hours at VCU trying to figure this out. The big problem turned out to be the loader.
Be forwarned that the new upgrades may have unexpected affects on your code. One example: at the beginning of autonomous mode, our gearboxes would shift into neutral (and then we couldn't get them into gear in auto-mode since we can't shift on the fly). This resulted in us sitting still for almost all of our autonomous periods. We finally found the problem after our last match of the regional, but the root cause was the new firmware slightly changed the way the servos worked (of course, everything worked just fine with the old firmware).
Anyway, the point is: beware of the upgrade.
