Re: Question about autonomous mode

To have a quality auto mode. You should make an autonomous modes that are capable of the following.

1.) The Option to Run No Autonomous Mode. Incase yours goes wrong,
your partners have a stronger auto mode then you do, or causes your robot to break. You can cover this with No.2

2.) The ability to add a delay, usually a POT with a 1-15 second setting. This allows your partners to get out of the way if they also have an auto mode.

3.) The ablity to select to score on at least 2 diffrent spider legs. If you can score on all 3 in a row thats a plus. Being able score on any additional side is a major bonus.

4.) When and if your robot can score, once its done get out of the way. If you can select the direction it will run away in thats even better. This give your partners time to score.

5.) If your robot can take the abuse, a defensive auto mode is a great thing!

Bottom line flexablity is key and usually little addons to a program make all the diffrence.
