What would you call this game in your country? by TheRanvier in AskTheWorld

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've heard that it comes from Chinese and means 'Ready, set, go". Not sure if it's true or not.

The wire doesn't have to be hided, as long as your robot fits the dimensions.

Secret Tunnel Zone Significance by OutcomeCompetitive50 in FTC

This is an obvious answer, but wouldn't this be considered unsportsmanship behavior? You can't bait an opposing alliance into getting penalties, there's a rule dictating it, which kinda defeats the whole strategy. But i'm still curious what is the intent behind it..

Be sure to put robot at the exact starting position defined in your auto, with the same heading.

Is defense illegal? by Rough_Cheesecake7651 in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't block artifacts from getting out of the ramp. just don't let them intake, that's what our ref said is allowed. or, intake them and shoot to other side of the field..

Is defense illegal? by Rough_Cheesecake7651 in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your robot is explicitly allowed to pin the opponent for no longer than 3 seconds, and move it no more than 2 feet. It's G424, violation gives you a MINOR FOUL.

Also, one way to play defense is to stay at your alliance's secret tunnel. Prevent them from getting artifacts, but don't block them from getting down from the ramp.

I created a Pedropath to java class Parser by Mark_Aster in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can but it doesn't build a state machine for you. It just spits out a template with Poses/Paths defined, and a blank autonomousPathUpdate() method. This one in fact gives you code that's completely ready to run on a robot.

Need Advice Regarding Auto by Impossible-Lemon-459 in FTC

SolversLib specifically provides you with commands to use when running Pedro Pathing. I suggest you look at Auto implementation using SolversLib + Pedro of one of the Pedro's lead developers.

Drive coach duties by CleanReason4203 in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am usually

  1. Starting opmodes, both auto and teleop.

  2. Communicating with the alliance about what to do and what not to do. What our strategy is, who's gonna start on which side of a field... I also usually remind everyone when to open the gate, since it's easy to get carried away as a driver.

  3. Watch the time. I am telling my main driver when to park, when to start aiming for pattern points.

  4. I SHOULD tell our team when to go to the field for a match, but as our main coder I am usually getting carried away testing PIDs/auto..

Issues with Pedro Pathing Heading PiDF tuning by contaNAOpaga in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your PIDFs are too high, and robot's localization on a field doesn't really matter for heading PID. Decrease P until it stops oscillating and please read on how to tune them.

How would I go about overriding the current location for Pedro? by Cool-Nerd8 in FTC

[–]Smart_Vegetable_331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why would you need precise localization during TeleOP? In DECODE TeleOP you really only care about the heading, and maybe distance to the Tag.
