# HAL DS Socket
This is an extension that allows the Driver Station to communicate with the robot program. Note that not everything has been reimplemented, since lots of DS data like battery voltage doesn't apply in simulation.

## Configuration

The only environment variable the extension supports is `DS_TIMEOUT_MS`, which is the amount of milliseconds it takes for a UDP packet to arrive from the DS before the robot program automatically disables. Default value is `100`, representing 100 milliseconds.

Add README files for some subprojects and update various other docs (#8640) Adds a section on design philosophy so we have something to point to when people suggest features that aren't compatible with the way WPILib is designed. Fixes some missed reorg changes (although the native-utils link intentionally points to main as to be up-to-date in the future) and generally cleans up any outdated information. Also includes wording about supporting FTC. Per discussion in Slack, the LabVIEW wording has been removed, and anything to do with LabVIEW is going to have to be NI's job. And pursuant to #2757 and #5331, additional (light) developer documentation has been added to some subprojects, mostly being a quick summary of the what the project does and what it's for (or not for). --------- Co-authored-by: sciencewhiz <sciencewhiz@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Joseph Eng <91924258+KangarooKoala@users.noreply.github.com> 2026-04-26 19:39:26 -04:00			`## Configuration`
