Are you using labview or windriver?

We had several code issues at GSR and it didn't help that we traveled without a programmer. Our autonomous mode prevented the watchdog from getting fed, which basically resulted in our robot being disabled the rest of the match. It took us forever ti find the error since we had no programmer so we were stationary for 6 out of our 8 matches...
