Practice Mode

What is it?

The best drivers are able to use the entire range of the joystick to its fullest extent. New drivers like to treat the joysticks as binary. Practice mode is here to help train binary joystick users by shutting the entire drive off when the joystick is maxed out.

Enabling

Adding chassis.opcontrol_joystick_practicemode_toggle(true); to your code will enable practice mode. When practicing, we recommend driving in a figure 8 pattern to force yourself to use more of the joystick.

void opcontrol() {
  // This is preference to what you like to drive on
  chassis.drive_brake_set(MOTOR_BRAKE_COAST);
  
  // Enable practice mode
  chassis.opcontrol_joystick_practicemode_toggle(true);

  while (true) {
    chassis.opcontrol_tank(); // Tank control

    pros::delay(ez::util::DELAY_TIME); // This is used for timer calculations!  Keep this ez::util::DELAY_TIME
  }
}

Disabling

Removing chassis.opcontrol_joystick_practicemode_toggle(true); from your code, or setting it to false, will disable practice mode.

void opcontrol() {
  // This is preference to what you like to drive on
  chassis.drive_brake_set(MOTOR_BRAKE_COAST);
  
  // Disable practice mode
  chassis.opcontrol_joystick_practicemode_toggle(false);

  while (true) {
    chassis.opcontrol_tank(); // Tank control

    pros::delay(ez::util::DELAY_TIME); // This is used for timer calculations!  Keep this ez::util::DELAY_TIME
  }
}
