Once you ship this you can't edit the description of the project, but you'll be able to add more devlogs and re-ship it as you add new features!
Timeline
Today I added an example for controlling a MechaLeague Robot with RemoteXY, with this simple example you connect to the robot via BLE with the RemoteXY app and send 2 joystick positions which are then logged over serial, a simple proof of concept for controlling the robot.
I got started working on the Comms and Networking parts of MechaLib to automatically connect to the field, i'm also working on implementing DEV mode which is simply activated by shorting GND with GPIO15 upon power-up
Today i got started with the RobotState logic so the robot automatically knows which method to call
Today I have been dealing with this super annoying error 😭 basically it's the xtensa-esp32-elf-g++ compiler throwing a tantrum because it doesn't play nice with Bluepad32, sadly I'm considering removing this library (quote-unquote because it's not really a library, it's a repackage of the Arduino core with the Bluepad32 code) since it complicates the process of installing MechaLib, compiling it and adds a ton of flash overhead (54% on an empty project 💀)
Today I started working with the main robot lifecycle logic, after this i plan to continue with the Logger, making it more adaptable and then moving on to the communication protocol

MECHALEAGUE MAKES IT'S COMEBACK! Since last summer (High Seas) I had been working on my project: MechaLeague, The robotics competition for everyone. Since then i have been working developing the challenge for the 2025 season: Chemistry Quest. I designed the field, and I am in progress of writing the Match Management System, MechaLib (Software library for the Robot Controller) and along with my FRC team we are realizing this project with the help of our state's Institute of Youth. :D
