Slow Speed Dart #17

Open maxar6 opened 8 years ago

maxar6 commented 8 years ago

Second feature request by the drive team :D They would like to have a slow speed operation on the dart. Currently the dart speeds are mapped on the second joystick (opjoystick) on the R1 and R2 buttons (the top button and trigger) at 85% speed for up travel and 65% speed for down travel. They would like L1 and L2 mapped to slower speed operation like 50% up speed and 30% down speed. One shower though to add to this, what if we used the analog stick to control up and downward movement. This would allow variable speed control. Let us know what you think and have fun!

I have already talked to multiple people regarding this. Personally I would agree to having it be variable but the drive team is insistent on using just two buttons. This is something I can walk through with someone remotely if they want to know whats going on. On Mar 14, 2016 2:25 PM, "maxar6" notifications@github.com wrote:

I totally agree with you. I guess it does not mean we could not have both so if they prefer one over the other they could use it. If you want to know the current mapping and how it works looks at OI.cpp and ActuateDartCommand.cpp. Let us know with questions :)
