Re: Auto mode woes.

Again looking at actual matches in the qualifying rounds, auto mode was worth as much as a good ramp bot.

This was a hard year and I wish it could have been worth more.

Reason we did so well in autonomous was hardware finished the bot a week before shipping and we put 60 hours into software.

Last year was our rookie year for 1902, last year had a hard auto shooting a ball into the goal and easy goal take them to the corner. We did that the easy one in about 8 hours and it worked perfect for over 30 times in a row. It was a reason we were 9-0 at Houston.

I don't think we could have done this year’s auto mode if we would have been a rookie.

I agree, I do wish auto mode for next year would be worth more but I am happy that this is worth something.
