There is getMatchTime(), but it is "unofficial". The DriverStation class does have some pretty useful functions. One I'm hoping to implement for our shooter is getBatteryVoltage().

Does anyone else think that a timer on the DS would also be a good idea?

What we did last year was at the start of the operatorControl call, call GetFPGATime(), and then send the time elapsed over the network packer to our custom dashboard. It won't be perfect, but it'll be very close.
