Well I'm excited to see that 1 RP Auton for sure.
It looks like you guys have a turret that just streams out balls. |
Re: pic: 3641 Teaser
Always exciting to see what the Toasters are cooking up! Looking forward to that 12 gear auton! ;)

Keep in mind you can also score your starting 10, then go get 30 more while those are counting... |

If you take 5 seconds to drive, get the balls, and re-align and begin shooting you are looking at under 10 seconds to shoot 45 balls and make every single one. Which now leaves you with almost the exact time that it takes for the boiler to count all the balls. |

I would say that the 40 fuel auton is slightly easier than the 2 ball auto was last year, and we saw more than a few teams get that done.

To be fair, there's also something to be said for score 30-35 kPA, even if you don't get all forty. The benefit of the auton gear is 20 points. If you can beat that with balls, especially if your alliance can't get the third auton gear, then I think you come out ahead.
I also think that, at some of the speeds teams will be shooting, firing 40+ balls in the required timeframe will not be much of a challenge. |

The manual says it averages 5 ball/sec scoring. That means that it has so be faster than that. So an average of 8 seconds to count 40 balls, but if the boiler is full and the counter is operating at max output I bet its a few seconds faster. |

You don't need to repeatedly post with variants of "I don't think this will happen", with nothing else added to the post. You've made that post already; we're aware that's what you think. |

I threw together a simple spreadsheet calculator to estimate timing of auto scoring so people can get a sense for how feasible complex auto modes are.
If arriving at the hopper and loading can be done sufficiently quickly, with a high-volume shooter, a 40 high goal auto is possible but difficult. |

Even if the 40 don't get counted if 30 fuel get counted it is a wash with scoring a gear, as you've scored 20 more points in fuel than you would in tele, just like starting a rotor in auto scores 20 more points that it does in tele. Plus you're also 10 KPA closer to that RP and 10 KPA should easily be 1 robots worth of fuel. |
