Data tracker to track robot statistics: a fun little program

after working on this for awhile, i finished this fun little project which uses a txt file to track data of the robot over the year, so that maybe at the end of the season you can see stuff like “the robot drove 27 miles this season” “the robot shot 218 notes this season”, etc. Its fully customizable and easy to setup.
It shouldnt lag up your robot or anything, as all the loading is done upon deploy and when you disable the robot, which is still very fast and shouldnt lag anything. All you do is add the class to your code, follow the setup instructions and your good. takes maybe 5 minutes.
It works by using a txt file that gets read upon deploy, and translated into a hashmap. the hashmap is updated during the competition, and upon disabling the robot, it rewrites the txt file with the new data.
Any thoughts on this idea/project?

(warning - cannot test it until december 10th, but the simulation shows it working perfectly)
