Re: Auto help

They now hide that Robot mode vi from us. Although there are workarounds it's probably best to base your code on one of the two Frameworks (Basic or Advanced). They have a choice of two special vi's for your autonomous code.

Those have the added benefit of automatically killing autonomous when the period ends, rather than wait for your autonomous loop to end naturally. That prevents anyone from accidentally continuing their autonomous into TeleOp and not being able to gain driver control.
