Digital inputs are indeed precious. We have basically have what you described on the robot itself: 2 10-position rotary switches, each of which involve soldering the 10 resistors together in close quarters.
Last year, my team used a bank of dip switches that went to digital inputs, plus one three-position switch wired to an analog input, which we used to denote the starting position.
