Re: IRI Feedback Thread
I agree with all of the positives and the event was a lot of fun overall, but my team did have some negative experiences on the field. A number of times when we were trying to set up we either had to wait for our partners to place their robots and then move out of the way or (on the blue side) wait for the previous match's robots to get off the field and take their robots away. This itself was not a problem, but it meant that by the time we were able to start actually setting up our robot the field crew gave us very little time (twice only about ten seconds) before they told us we had to get off the field immediately. Then, as we returned to the driver station, we twice had the match started very quickly while we were still touching the controls to set up our dashboard and select which autonomous routine to run (If there was a warning or countdown, we didn't hear it). So we were frustrated that we often were not set up where we wanted to be, couldn't run autonomous, and/or had to start teleop by finishing setting values on the dashboard before we started driving.
