Re: counting in seconds for the autonomous mode??

hmmmm.... I dont understand TedPs adversion to counting SW loops.

someone has tested the timing of the statusflag.NEW_SPI_DATA event- its controlled by a timer in the communications loop and testing has shown its dead accurate every time, unless you have so much code that it takes more than 26mS seconds to execute.

statusflag.NEW_SPI_DATA will be true 38 times a second - you can even round it off to 40 to make it simpler - I cant imagine anyone needing finer resolution that 1/38th of a second while setting up the sequence of events in auton mode ?
