February 2025 (frc4087/SwerveDriveBase2025) was focused on stabilizing runtime operation and expanding autonomous capabilities. Key outcomes include stabilizing robot operation by defaulting to standard (non-practice) mode, removing a DriveToPoseCommand that caused compiler errors, and cleaning up unused automatic configuration to reduce confusion and misconfigurations. Delivered an Arm and Intake Autonomous Routine that sequences arm lowering, intake operation, and output, with refined path definitions and event markers to improve synchronization between navigation and actuator actions. These changes reduce runtime errors, simplify configuration, and enable more reliable autonomous scoring, supporting predictable performance during testing and competition.
