Thanks for all the quick replies! sorry i cant take screen shots of the programming i have already done. what i basically set up was button 8 going into a case structure. (in true) i called up the Get angle then added 10 to it the put that value into Set Angle. it showed a red dot at Set angle. we deployed this code and nothing happened. is there a way to fix the red dot or should we use another Vi such as Set Position and Get position?
Also i did get the Throttle to work. all we added was a negate because it was backwards.
Again thanks for all the help. This is the second year I have been on the team and i am already the head programmer on my team.

The dot is because Get Angle provides an unsigned 16 bit integer, and Set Angle wants a signed 32 bit integer. They are compatible, but not identical. You are right to be concerned about it, but this particular red dot is to be expected and causes no problems.

If there is compatibility then why isnt our robot responding? do i need to add a converter Vi in between that? or is there something else wrong with our code?

I don't know why your robot is not responding. You haven't given enough information about how you're trying to make it do what you want it to.
