Add Accelertion Fxn #42

Closed pmaldonado closed 10 years ago

pmaldonado commented 10 years ago

One issue we noticed is the robot being knocked off of course from start up jerking. Probable solution: accelerate and decelerate instead of jumping from speed values in autonomous.

This should not be an issue because of how motor slewing works - whatever you do, updateMotorValues slews it automatically (unless you guys aren't using it.... in which case, why aren't you using it?? :P)

See issue #37 - me and Josh noticed at lunch (sorry if we didn't get this communicated to you) that the motors don't actually scale with power (like even if you give them power = 20 they run at the same speed as power = 78).

What I meant by "this should not be an issue" is "this should not be an issue with already programmed code, but it's a possible issue with hardware configuration"

two things,

One. I think we can close this issue as it seems this isn't a coding issue

Two. What does it mean when it says I have moved milestones?

jimmyli97 commented 10 years ago

It means that you moved an issue to a different milestone I think...? not sure it's sorta confusing to me too
