Re: Clarification of Team Update #5

It sounds like you are sending your own TCP/IP packets on your own port. This type of data will be blocked by the FMS when you are on the field. If you only want to use it for debugging, don't worry about it, but don't plan on using it on the field.

You can still use the dashboard class to printf data to the dashboard, and that won't be blocked.

I've also written my own application that sends data through TCP/IP, so I understand how frustrating it can be to find out it won't be able to do anything on the field.
