The older version of the DS software would "see" DS digital inputs in autonomous mode, the newer version does not. We had a set of switches connected to the DS to control autnomous, but now those switches need to be moved to the robot, and the program changed. There was no time to do that before ship.
We also did not withhold our control system to work on programming...based on our experience of making some simple changes in one place, and several other things not working as a result, all during build season. We put a mostly working robot in the crate, hopefully we'll make all our practice matches, and fix the programming problems one at a time as time allows at the competitions.
