Cool, will try it with the y-intercept. Really curious if I'll be able to feel a significant difference at different a-values.
When I stated "This also enables us to vary the max value for the turning axes based on the robot's forward speed," I meant that we found at high speeds, a slight tap to the side on the joystick will send the robot flying away. So, for example, when the robot is moving 1.0 (full speed) in the y-direction, then we might only allow the robot to move up to 0.1 in the x-direction. When the robot isn't moving in the y-direction, then we allow the full 1.0 turning speed.

As a student, steering curves
was the first time I went from problem->math; it was definitely among my fav. robotics experiences. I will try this with some of the rookie programmers, and maybe my calc teacher
