2002 Game Simulator!

I got this e-mail from Ed Debler:

Quote:

Brian Debler (digitalgrunt.com) on behalf of myself and Team 217, Utica FIRST, has developed a 2002 FIRST Robotics Competition Game Simulator that can assist teams with developing their game strategy as well as serve as a scoring medium. It can be executed directly from the internet or from any PC.

This graphical interface program allows the user to interact by using a computer mouse to move goals and robots to any desired zone and place balls in the goals from either the player station (orange balls) or the field (yellow balls). The program simultaneously shows the points at each zone, each alliance's match points and qualifying points. I believe all teams will find this program very useful for strategy planning as well as keeping a running score during an actual competition match.

Chief Delphi has permission to post this program on their website for the benefit of all robotics teams provided that it is not altered or modified. We are giving this program to you as a courtesy and do not expect any compensation.

Attached to this note are two (2) versions of the program. One can be executed directly from the internet (flash format) and the other can be downloaded onto a PC computer (exe format). A MAC version will be available very soon.

The files are in the White Papers section of this site.

Brian Debler,
Excellent simulator, it was just as awesome as last years. One thing it neglects is the player station balls. Which will be one of the key elements of strategy. Other than that the Flash version of it was awesome.

Kyle,

I have the original version that Ed sent to us before he released it.

The robot has to be in the robot zone to receive the PS balls.

Outstanding job! I downloaded the exe and it looks and works great!

I will be sharing this with the Bobcat team tomorrow.

What a fantastic tool! I am going to email a pointer to this one to the rest of my team.

Thanks,
-Quentin

One suggestion: Since many teams are discussing this, you might want to program in a feature to simulate tethers (so a robot can be in more than 1 zone at once). Other than that omission, this is a wonderful program. Thanks!

The simulator has been updated.
Check the white papers.

There is a mac version too (.sit format)
