Folks - One of the things we knew we needed to do is to supply some on-screen graphics that would illustrate how the Xbox controllers make the simulated bots move.
I attached a sample (below - click on the thumbnail to see a bigger version) for use Tank Drive to steer one of our Holonomic robots (you can strafe and move diagonally, in addition to normal Tank Drive motions) - If you think I need to revise it, let me know.
I need to do three more: Tank Drive Skid, Arcade Holonomic, and Arcade Skid.

PS: We used to have the Keyboard and the Xbox user-controls show up in the on-screen hints. I'll ask the other guys if we took them out on purpose.
