Re: WPI PIDController doesn't account for varying dT?

We have changed it for our team's use, and I feel like changing the library would be a bad idea as it would break the PID loops that teams have already tuned.

I understand that it isn't a big deal and there aren't many reason to change the period. I was just curious to see if, as you say, there is a specific reason WPI left this out that I'm not seeing.

Sorry if I sounded rude in any way by mentioning this.
