Got the schematic tidied up, and added Grove header to schematic. When I went to run the footprint association it broke because the footprint file is .mod, which is legacy and not supported :(
Added the Grove connectors. Had to edit settings for the GND pads so that they tied to the copper pour with 'solid' instead of 'spokes' so that the pour areas would connect more. Also had to redefine the USB connector pins so that they were on the GND net. I'm getting some DRC errors that I think are erroneous, but I don't know why...

Hey Ryan, Please check my work for sanity that the rats nest wires that I'm seeing on the GND net are erroneous. I'm pretty sure that I have everything tied well to GND through the copper pour areas. |
Got the grove connections routed, and passing DRC

finished routing and silk. This file will go out to board house. |

In order to get the Grove footprint onto the .pcb file, I think I will have to add it manually instead of creating a new .net file. The only option is to rebuild all the parts in the .mod file and save it as a .kicad_mod file. Ryan, do you have any insight into this issue?
