Pathplanner default origin

Is there a way to change the origin used in PathPlanner? Specifically I want to make the Y axis 0 be straight down the center of the field. This would make it play nicer with our April tag map and general coordinate system we’ve decided we want to use. Any way to do this? Or do we have to re-think all the other stuff we already have working pretty nicely?

Why not keep it on the corner and just use the path mirroring functionality to handle red vs blue symmetry.

Why not use WPILib’s defaults?

We don’t have a space large enough to mimic the entire field length or width. We early on decided to create our own coord system with y0 being centered which has been allowing us to easier measure/simulate/verify things within our space. It’s been a great move for us until now that we’re trying to incorporate pathplanner for the first time ever. If we could modify that in pathplanner, things would really play nicely. We could go back to defaults, just adds another layer of difficulty to our measuring.

Most teams don’t have a full field, so I’m not sure I understand who that’s related to your problem. We built the red field elements and placed the relevant AprilTags on them.
