Help! Robot Not Moving Even With Connection and Code!

Hi everyone. I’m a newbie programmer for Team 2496 and so far I have this driving code for our mecanum drive robot. However, even though I connected to the robot and enabled it, moving the joystick does nothing…Is there anything wrong with the code I have made for the 2015 roboRIO? I know for a fact it should be working because it worked on our team’s older practice bot with the older cRIO.

package org.usfirst.frc.team2496.robot;

import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.RobotDrive;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.Joystick;
import edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.IterativeRobot;

public class Robot extends IterativeRobot {
RobotDrive wholeDrive = new RobotDrive(0, 1, 2, 3);
Joystick stick = new Joystick(1);

public void robotInit() {
    wholeDrive.setInvertedMotor(RobotDrive.MotorType.kFrontRight, true);
    wholeDrive.setInvertedMotor(RobotDrive.MotorType.kRearRight, true);
}

public void autonomousPeriodic() {

}

public void teleopPeriodic() {
	wholeDrive.mecanumDrive_Polar(stick.getMagnitude() * .50, -stick.getDirectionDegrees(), stick.getTwist() * .75);
   
	if(stick.getRawButton(3)) {
		System.out.println("Button pressed!");
	}
	if(stick.getRawButton(4)) {
        System.out.println("Regular Direction: " + stick.getDirectionDegrees());
    }
    
    if(stick.getRawButton(1)) {
        this.driveStraight(1);
        System.out.println("Drive Straight Activated!");
    }
}

public void driveStraight(int joystickButton) {
    double stickDegrees = 0;
    
    while (stick.getRawButton(joystickButton)) {
        if(stick.getDirectionDegrees() < 0)
            stickDegrees = -90.0;
        else
            stickDegrees = 90.0;

        wholeDrive.mecanumDrive_Polar(stick.getMagnitude() * .60, -stickDegrees, stick.getTwist()); 
    }
        
    System.out.println("Stick Direction: " + stick.getDirectionDegrees());
}

public void testPeriodic() {
	
}  

}

Joysticks are now zero-indexed. They probably should have made that clearer in the documentation.

What kind of speed controllers are you using? RobotDrive defaults to Talon speed controllers.

I would also recommend removing the while loop from driveStraight. Put that code inside the if statement instead of driveStraight as teleopPeriodic is already being called periodically.

Also using

 tags lets you share your code in a more reader-friendly style.
