I did and it still doesn’t work

Thanks for including your complete program! That makes it much easier to debug these sorts of things.

ROBOSHEEN-config.h threw an error on

using namespace vex;

because that file doesn’t know about the vex namespace in the first place, since the files that define that namespace aren’t included.

I added the following two Iines to the top of ROBOSHEEN-config.h:

#include "v5.h"
#include "v5_vcs.h"

and that solved the “expected namespace name” error - although the project still failed to compile due to an error in the driveStraight function.
