What is electrical supposed to do while mechanical is prototyping?!?!
Post Body

I'm an electrical student, so we don't have very much work to do in the first month while waiting for an actual full scale design. What are some things that we can do or prepare right now, because we're kinda out of ideas. No shade on Mechanical; they're cool beans whose work take a lot of testing and refining.

Details: We have made a base plate for all our components to go on, soldered proper connectors on stuff, made a full size diagram of the current design and found rough wire pathways. Mechanical has almost purely CAD designs or prototypes that aren't made to go on our chassis yet, so exact positioning is still up in the air.

Edit: Thank you for all the suggestions, I should learn to program lol. It feels weird not having twenty things to do because our team almost doubled this year, so the additional tasks I used to do have been allocated to new students. Making this post has definitely helped me realize a few things that need help and given me some new ideas:)
