Modifying speed curve for <DriveBase>.straight()

[techcatgato]

Hi all! I was wondering if there's any way to modify the driving speed curve while using straight(). I want to implement something like this:

        x = (robot.distance() - start_dist) / dist
        if x < 0.5:
            speed = vmax * (2 * x**2)
        else:
            speed = vmax * (1 - 2 * (1 - x)**3)
        speed += 0.1

It looks like you want to control acceleration? You can already do that with robot.settings(straight_acceleration=...).

Won't that only help with a linear acceleration?

You can also set turn_rate and turn_acceleration. See the documentation.
