I'll see what I can do...

Something to make tweaking variables easer would be really nice (you know, for those situations where you need to get the deadzone on the joystick just right or tweak the speed so the right motor goes a little slower).

Some teams created a command prompt, via a terminal program, to change constants and make other changes to the robot without uploading new code.

I don't know what your talking about, but this is entirely within the standard MPLAB project. So add:

• Interpret_Data()

for checking that sort of thing. The challenge is making it extremely flexible and general, yet doing that sort of thing easily, W/O BLOAT.

Thats a really good idea! How is it done? Do you know where I can take a look at the code?

Well by some teams, i only meant one specific example, but I'm sure there are more. Let me see if I have can get permission to post the relevant part of the code.
