Guy talking crap on my bot for no reason.

Yesterday, this random dude came into my comment section and is talking about my bot being garbage when it's just unique. Won't listen to anything I say and just goes on to a new point every reply about how it sucks and Im being cocky somehow. Is this true? I mean I had no intention of being cocky in the video and to me it doesn't sound this way. Either way, people like this should not be allowed to compete if they're gonna treat others like this for no reason.

Check out my video if you haven't, and listen to that audio so you can see what I'm talking about and what I believe he thinks is me being "cocky" somehow.

Also, this was a two day rebuild from a basket bot as well so obviously it's not gonna be the greatest build and we lacked time to do it before a tournament.

Code editor not detecting errors with Vex VScode extension

When I type anything in the main.cpp file of any program, there are no red squiggly lines under the text. Also, when I right-click on an object like competition or a motor object, there is nothing that allows me to go to the definition in the vex.h file. Does anyone know what could be happening? All the C/C++ extensions are installed.

What language should I move to from python?

I am wondering whether I should switch to C++ or another language from python. I have been coding python for around 4 years (not just vex). I also know some Java. I do a local non-official vex competition, which has no auton, and the main event is sumo battles. There is also a speed event, where you have to drive a course fast, and a timed task, both of which can give you byes in the sumo bracket. Most teams are not super technical and in middle school. I have only ever seen 4 wheel drives (and a few 6 wheelers or tanks), and around 40% of bots are lightly modified clawbots. I have not gone very deep into programming complicated stuff for vex other than playing with building guis. Are there any libraries that allow drawing on the controller screen beyond just text? I am interested in learning another language, and maybe doing more complex stuff for fun.
