Go to Post The game is as much a competition of strategies as it is of robots. There is never any one "best strategy." If teams choose to use this as their strategy, find one that will beat them. - srjjs [more]

Re: [FTC]: controller programming

The top-hat activates like this:

"if(joystick.joy1_TopHat == 1){
//do something
}"

It's really just four buttons and the variable "joystick.joy1_TopHat" will contain one of five values representing the pressed button (the fifth value is for no buttons). I forget which order the buttons correspond in now, but it's pretty easy to use,

Good luck and we'll see you in atlanta,

Alex
