Re: new to EEPROM

If I understand how your program works from what you've said, I must say it isn't always effective for Rack n' Roll. You re-enact what the drivers just did, but when the rack is shifted it won't always be in the exact spot.
BC-True enough...If your going to have a dynamically changing field then autonomous get complicated. Your robot will have to read and react to its environment. Autoflex worked very well for Triple Play and Aim High.

Of course, it's much better than nothing(nothing being doing nothing or driving by dead reckoning).

Well, I received the code. It's really neat for rookie teams, I must agree. Good job.
BC-Exactly the purpose of Autoflex. To get teams who either ran out of time or resources to have autonomous ready for a tournament. We could get robots up and recording in about 15 minutes. With autoflex there is no excuse for just sittng there.

But its not a substitute for a well thought out autonomous routine. This year we used the camera to home in on the lights.

So, now that I understand a bit about EEPROM, I understand that I don't need to use that function I did to save points of distances from the rack, I can use the EEPROM.

So lets say if I want to save a few points of distances while I'm on manual mode, I need to assign a button to call for EEPROM_Write(); and advance the address number in order to assign another point?
You got it...

Good Luck and feel free to experiment.
