Dashboard

Key	Data Type	Value	Description
thunderdashboard_elevator	number	0-100	elevator's height location/position
thunderdashboard_elevator_target	number	0-100	the elevator location it is trying to reach
elevator_target_position	string	e.g. Hatch 1, Cargo 2, Loading Station	the 'name' of the location the elevator is trying to reach
gamepiece_mode	string	hatch cargo	The game piece "mode" the robot thinks it is in. This impacts the elevator positions. Color coded border or text color of gamepiece_target_mode based on if this is the same as or different than gamepiece_target_mode (aka if the robot has achieved the desired mode or not yet). Something like red for "not there yet" and green for "there".
gamepiece_target_mode	string	hatch cargo	The game piece "mode" the robot wants to go to. Display using text. Also consider using an image of a hatch panel or cargo ball?
thunderdashboard_green	number	0 - do NOT have a game piece 1 - have a game piece	Background of dashboard goes green.
robot_airpressure	number	0 - 125	Indicates the PSI in the air system. Display in a slider or pressure gauge (this if possible). based on lower and upper, indicate range its in.
thunderdashboard_airpressure_lower	number	something 0-125	threshold between red and yellow
thunderdashboard_airpressure_upper	number	something 0-125	threshold between yellow and green
robot_match_time_remaining	number	0-135	number of seconds left in the current match period
pi_connected	number	0 - NOT connected 1 - connected	Raspberry Pi connection status
thunderdashboard_max	number	0 = show normal 1 = fill screen	fills screen or not
