As an FLL mentor this season, I'm sure this will be very helpful, especially considering how confusing the rules can be to a new team.

This is an awesome resource. It'll come in very handy.

Thanks for doing all of this work
Unfortunately I downloaded what you had in your FTC Excel spreadsheet and it does not seem to work. I tried both the online version and the downloaded version.

Am I missing the instructions somewhere?

for example
I put in the number of particles scored in the central vortex as 12 and the total score I get at the end is 12 (I think this should be 60)

Am I doing something wrong?

I notice that the scores don't seem to be adding up

just wondering. thanks for helping everyone!!

Hi Bob!

I'm trying to reproduce but cannot. Can you please send a screenshot of your input?

[Bob Steele]

See attached please
let me know what I did wrong.
:eek:

The black spot where you typed is where the score output goes. The user input needs to happen in the dark and light blue cells. For reference, the key/instructions can be found in columns L and M rows 13-19.
