How does it handle coordinate systems?

The skill includes utilities for converting between RoadRunner's center-origin system (inches/radians) and other formats like Pedro Pathing or Limelight field coordinates.

Does this skill support RoadRunner 0.5.x?

This skill is specifically optimized for RoadRunner 1.0 and its Actions-based API, though it can provide guidance on migrating legacy 0.5.x code to the new version.

Can this skill help with the physical tuning process?

Yes, it provides the correct sequence of OpModes to run, from motor direction tests to manual feedforward and feedback tuning, ensuring high-accuracy tracking.

Can I use this for non-mecanum drive systems?

Yes, while mecanum is common in FTC, the skill supports various drivetrain configurations including tank drives and dead-wheel localization setups.
