Help us figure out why the controllers don't seem to change anything in the robot.py sim #5

When we run the robot.py simulator, we don't see any window activity for controller button presses, etc... Help us figure this out so we can test out code better.

So, I saw this message in the output as the simulator is starting up:

22:12:11:801 WARNING : pyfrc.sim.ui : pygame not detected, real joystick support not loaded

I think we'll need to install pygame before joystick works. Last I checked there was no pygame for Python 3.7.1, but I will check to see what is available.

I was able to install the compatible version of pygame using the following:

pip3 install pygame==1.9.4

I can test to see if it works with an Xbox controller when I get in to Tappan.
