During auto, all of the elevator commands are fed to the normal state-machine that is always running. The auto code only handles the drivetrain directly, using two encoders and a gyro for drivetrain positioning.

So, by "for positioning", I meant "for drivetrain positioning".
That's what I get for posting at 11:00 after two long days of competition.

(I actually write the auto routines in beescript, and use the beescript interpreter to call the auto command blocks, which set the state machine or drive, but that's mostly to avoid LV downloads when making auto routine changes)

I kinda figured you meant drive positioning. I was just curious about your elevator sensors, as we had some issues (which in large part, where a result of us not truly planning ahead for sensor mounting) with our elevator sensors and had to get creative in terms of how to measure it. Just wanted to see what you guys had done.
