List of autonomous modes

Setting 1: Do nothing

  • Do nothing for the full 15 seconds
  • Not typically used in actual competition but good for testing

Setting 2: Shoot in high goal, then move

Must be correctly positioned by the drive team

Minimum 4 points, maximum 12 points, 17 points if crossing initiation line

  • Spin up the flywheel
  • Use feeder to move balls to the shooter at some constant rate in order to maximize accuracy
  • Shoot balls into outer port
  • Move X distance forward/backward
  • Do nothing for the rest of autonomous

Setting 3: Shoot in high goal with N second delay, then move

Must be correctly positioned by the drive team

Minimum 4 points, maximum 12 points, 17 points if crossing initiation line

  • Spin up the flywheel
  • Wait for N seconds
  • Use feeder to move balls to the shooter at some constant rate in order to maximize accuracy
  • Shoot balls into outer port
  • Move X distance forward/backward
  • Do nothing for the rest of autonomous

Setting 4: Move backward

5 points

  • Move backward some amount of feet
  • Cross initiation line
  • Do nothing for the rest of autonomous

Setting 5: Shoot in high goal, acquire power cell from rendezvous point, score in high goal

Must be correctly positioned by the drive team

May not have enough time Minimum 13 points, maximum 29 points

  • Spin up the flywheel
  • Use feeder to move balls to the shooter at some constant rate in order to maximize accuracy
  • Shoot balls into outer port
  • Drive to rendezvous point
  • Pick up power cell(s) from ground
  • Drive to position for scoring
  • Spin up the flywheel
  • Use feeder to move balls to the shooter at some constant rate in order to maximize accuracy
  • Shoot balls into outer port

Setting 6: Shoot in high goal, acquire power cell from trench run, score in high goal

Must be correctly positioned by the drive team
