I’ve had no problem with this in the simulator
but on the actual robot I can use initSendable just fine to get data on Shuffleboard,
but I can’t seem to get the numbers to send data to the code base for tuning purposes.
Do I need to do any of that setActuator code for the real robot mentioned in docs.
No, they’re not through WPILib, that’s why they’re unofficial. If you search on CD or google for “FRC shuffleboard replacement” you can find a few. I don’t know enough to recommend one over another.
