the E-Stop

[Ian W.]

the E-Stop button does not disable you for the match!

last year, pushing it down disabled you. to re-enable yourself, you would twist the button, and it would pop back up. then, you could drive around again. useful for almost nothing last year, very important this year.

if you hit the E-Stop button, your robot light shuts off, and your player station light blinks (i believe). when you twist and release the E-Stop button, both should come on solid again.

keep in mind, the referees will disable you if you aren't quick enough to do it yourself, and from what i've seen, they don't re-enable you.
