They came up with a workaround: they tether the robot in the queue and set the value then, leaving the robot on until the match is over.

So instead of building the code and pressing Run as Startup, we should just press the button that is a "soft" deploy(The button to the left: http://puu.sh/ghsYK/d1b8777f29.png) and then pick it through the dashboard, then disconnect the thether, and when we get to the field, just do our thing and connect the computer to their ethernet?
