Take your team for example, your rookie year was 2001, and your autonomous barely works (manages to kick one ball out of three when you KNOW where the balls are and there's no defenders to bother you) 9 years later. An autonomous framework would allow you hopefully program a competitive autonomous mode by bypassing the development problems that many students don't even realize are there.
That is true, but Like I explained in my previous threads, I DGAFed this year, so I never used my knowledge to the fullest potential, I was just "Get it working" just the bare minimum... Also I was limited by the hardware, the kicker was only capable of kicking like 15 feet, thats 1 bump, and was no aiming the ball at all and the goal was to just kick 1 ball
