I have no clue how a robot will work without a single sensor in autonomous mode. It should know if its going left or right unless you wanna reduce your chance of having it work by 50 percent off the bat.
I wouldn't really consider it a sensor, but we have a dial on the robot that selects the program to run. There are 16 positions on the dial, so we can have up to 16 different programs. Some of those positions will be used for duplicate runs on different sides of the field. It really isn't that difficult.

I don't know what kind of experience you have programming, but you seem to be way off base in some of your statements. A "looping" program can pretty simply be implemented with a state-machine. If you remember that you have scratch RAM to play with or even the EEPROM, you can do some really creative stuff.

Just because you can't imagine it, doesn't mean it can't be done.
