I understand that our excellent driver might be a little peeved, but considering he's also our head programmer and gave me the thumbs-up to try the idea out, I have some justification.
Part of the reason I'm making this code is because last year our robot was very top-heavy, and fell over 2-3 times. The trackball is going to be a huge weight, so it'd be nice to have a backup if we try driving our robot and the driver needs an extra cushion for turns.
Also, I just thought of this a few days ago, so I couldn't have played around with it during pre-season. I have tested the basic code I posted, and the robot has one side's wheels turning slowly while the joystick is in the neutral position, and the other side's wheels not moving. I'm debugging that as we speak. Type. Post. You understand what I'm getting at.
It seems to work other than that little problem, though. I appreciate all of the ideas, and try a few out today.
