Determine the best way to drive robot in auto #15

In previous years, I've used just a PID loop to get to a certain location on the field. However, this isn't the best way to do it. There is even a better way with motion profiling and path planning.

I am going to research how intense motion profiling is and if it is worth us to implement.

It looks like the Talon SRX Motion Magic is what will work best for us. We just have to wait until it has been ported to RobotPy.

How long will that be? This season or no?

Turns out pathfinder is harder than it seems. Just doing basic straight-turn-straight for auto
