Re: robot control emulator for default or other program

Some emulator equivalents:
* If you want to see the effect on the motors, disconnect the PWM cable from the Victor, and put a servo on the output instead.
* You can see the effect on the LED of Spikes with no load.
* You could use a big DEBUG statement to see the effect on the value of variables, of your calculations.
* To try out different values from sensor inputs, temporarily type in an assignment for the variable.
* And you could watch the dashboard for variables, too.

The best "emulator" is still the robot, but there are ways.
