0x29		Habitat	laser range finder	VL53L0X	detects when we are ready to retract the first set of cylinders	If climbing to level 3, when distance changes from 21.162 to 2.162 the cylinders will retract .  If climbing to level 2, when distance changes from 21.162 to 15.162 the cylinders will retract.	PROBABLY NOT USING ANYMORE

A-2	Left Trigger	Fast on left (binary)
B-1	A Button	Swap Drive
B-3	X Button	Switch camera view
B-4	Y Button	Calibrate Gyro
B-2	B Button	Slow Mode Toggle

Controller 2 - Aux Driver

Button/Axis #	Action/Button	Description	Details
A-1	Elevator Manual Control	If in hab mode: If elevator is pivoted down and we have begun a hab climb, moves the appropriate drive wheels the given speed instead of the elevator. If not in carirage mode: Moves the elevator up and down, overrides going to a position, if hit when going somewhere, stop going somewhere and do this instead. If in carriage mode: Moves just the elevator carriage using window motor, stops if it reaches either the lower flag or the elevator upper flag.	Joystick; only up and down
B-1	Elevator High Rocket position	Move elevator to high rocket height.  Height adjusts depending on the cargo or hatch mode	Press only
B-2	Elevator Middle Rocket position	Move elevator to middle rocket height.  Height adjusts depending on the cargo or hatch mode	Press only
B-3	Elevator Low Rocket position	Move elevator to low rocket height.  Height adjusts depending on the cargo or hatch mode	Press only
B-4	Elevator Pivot Toggle	Toggles the elevator pivot and carriage position on each press. Only goes to starting config if the elevator is at the bottom. Only pivots elevator forwards if the carriage is at the upper stop or at the bottom.	Press only
B-5	Elevator Loading Station and/or Cargo ship position	Move elevator to loading station/cargo ship height.  Height adjusts depending on the cargo or hatch mode	Press only
B-6	Elevator Ground  Position	Move elevator to ground pick up position. Only works in cargo mode.	Press only
B-7	Intake	Intake game piece. Hatch or cargo depending on which mode it's in. Hold for continued operation of cargo	Press / press & hold
B-8	Outtake	Ejects game piece. Hatch or cargo depending on which mode it's in. Hold for continued operation of cargo	Press / press & hold
B-9	Hab Manual climb - step 2	On the first press extend back cylinder, when pressed after that retract back cylinders	Press only
B-10	Hab Manual climb - step 1	Extends the front 2 cylinders	Press only
B-11	Hab Manual climb - step 3	Retracts the rear cylinders to complete the climb	Press only
B-12	Hab auto climb	Begin and continue automatic Hab climbing. Let go to stop. Press again to continue where you left off. Does nothing if elevator is not pivoted down.	Press and Hold

Controller 2 - Aux Driver (Continued) 

Button/Axis #	Action/Button	Description	Details
B-1	Game piece mode - Cargo	Change game piece system to cargo mode	Press only
B-2	Game piece mode - Hatch	Change game piece system to hatch mode	Press only
B-3	HAB Sensor Broken	Makes HAB ignore sensor input	Toggle
B-4	Elevator encoder broken	Makes elevator ignore encoder input	Toggle
B-5	Hatch Sensor Broken	Makes hatch ignore sensor input	Toggle
B-6	HAB enable	Only enable HAB when pressed to avoid preemptively deploying	Toggle
B-7	Elevator Carriage Broken	Allows drivers to move carriage independently from the inner frame using window motor, switches the aux joystick input to control the snowblower motor instead of the elevator motors	Toggle
B-8	Broken Switch 6		Press only

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 Only will update with a clean shutdown - will not get unset with a sudden power loss
thunderdashboard_max	number	0 = show normal 1 = fill screen	fills screen or not
thunderdashboard_match_period_length	number	0-135	number of total seconds in the current match period
