LCD glitches in Competition Code

VEX Robotics Competition Discussion VRC

How do you program a LCD without the competition code overriding it. How do you disable the LCD commands in the competition template? I tried going through the code and commenting out all the LCD commands but the command that shows the code’s name keeps popping up and glitching the LCD out. I am using clear LCD line commands before I write something to the LCD. Thanks for the effort in advance! Also the LCD code works perfectly fine not in a competition template, just in regular, blank code.

Adding


 bDisplayCompetitionStatusOnLcd = false;

into your pre_auton task should fix it.

Yes, that’s something new we added in V4.54. We also changed the code so that starting a new task does not re-display the program name, that used to drive me nuts.

Thank you for the help!
