Auton

[mechlectrician7]

For the auton part of the game, you get bonus points for scoring, and for leaving the white zone, does it have to be done in that order? Do you have to shoot the ball before attempting to leave the white zone? Or can we leave the white zone and then shoot from our new location within our colored zone?

Any information will be helpful and appreciated.

Check the manual, but as far as it's currently written, there is no order you have to do Autonomous. Pick it as your team sees fit.

You are free to do any of the objectives in autonomous in any order. There are no rules dictating the order in which you proceed. In fact, I assume most teams will have to leave the white zone to score on the high goal.

The wording of section 3.1.4 suggests that the order does not matter:

ALLIANCES earn an additional five (5)-point Mobility bonus for each ROBOT that fully crosses in to their ZONE (e.g. a red ROBOT fully crosses in to the red ZONE) during AUTO (such that the entire ROBOT is contained in their ZONE at some point during AUTO).

If you wait until you get up close, the wrong goal may be lit. (eg. less bonus points, or turning to face the right goal) and all in 10 sec.)

Keep in mind these are all unofficial answers, but I also think that the order doesn't matter.
