Making a new robot

With access to the BunyipsFTC project complete, you are now able to access the software for all current robots.

If you would like to make a new robot, some configuration is required internally in the project.

These steps are also located in the "Common" directory within BunyipsFTC (file).

To create a new robot, you will need to think of a name for your new robot. Once you have one, switch your filesystem view from Android to Project:

Open BunyipsFTC > TeamCode and find the Template directory:

Right-click to copy and paste it in TeamCode. Input the name of your robot here. This example will use the robot name Cubicle:

Note: The "To Directory" field in the above screenshot may not match what you get, but it should end with BunyipsFTC/TeamCode.

Add files to Git if you are prompted:

Open the new directory of your robot's name, and double-click to open the build.gradle file of your robot:

Expand the dots, then uncomment lines 1-4 inside this file:

Finally, to complete setup, find the settings.gradle file in the root of the BunyipsFTC project (usually at the bottom), then open it:

At the bottom of this file, add these two lines, ensuring to substitute the example name "Cubicle" with your robot's name:

include ':Cubicle'
project(":Cubicle").projectDir = new File("TeamCode/Cubicle")

Finally, press Ctrl+Shift+O which will sync Gradle and add your configuration to the list.

Return to Android view in the filesystem viewer. You should confirm that your robot appears in the Android view list now.

Inside your new robot directory under kotlin+java, a .gitkeep file should exist. This .gitkeep file can be deleted. This is the directory where all of your robot code will go.

Your robot is now ready to be programmed.
