Using 2023 Path Planner beta with red alliance

Thanks for all the community support so far! We’re doing some final auto testing, using the 2023 PathPlanner beta. When we set the Alliance to Blue in Driver Station, our paths work fine. However, when we switch the Alliance to Red in driver station, the paths done flip as expected. We have the robot move from right to left in our auto in Blue, but it’s also moving from right to left on Red, when to should go left to right. This is using the 2022 field. Did we miss some config to get it to handle alliance selection correctly?

Not sure if this is what you are seeing but be aware from the 2024 Beta announcement:

Path Mirroring

Be aware that the path mirroring from the 2023 version is not included in 2024, assuming that the 2024 game will have standard field mirroring. If not, I will add in a solution.

That would be the problem! Off we go to make red paths and blue paths…

I would just write a quick function that mirrors a path (or copy PathPlanner’s one from 2023) instead of making all of them twice.
