Limit switches in autonomous

[nighterfighter]

Have you tried running JUST that else statement, (running the motor) in autonomous?

That will help you rule out if you just initialized things improperly.

Yes, I am pretty sure we have. [Everything is 'pretty sure' at this point because I haven't had access to the robot for three weeks...]
I know we tried running just the if-statement, with no line-following code or anything like that. There may have been a print-to-driver-station or something like that as well, but nothing that should affect it, I believe.

We normally test

if (topLimit.Get())
{
do something
}

or

if (!topLimit.get())
{
do something else
}

The code that works is testing == true while the code that does not work is testing == false.

I can't see anything wrong with the code; I just have the observation that your test is different between the code that is working and the code that is not working. You might want to rewrite the auto code to use a == true test.
