Re: How do you get your other ball
I have a question.. In other past games any game piece in possession of your robot was considered part of your robot, is it the same for this year? And if not then we are technically able to carry the trackball and use it to knock off our other trackball off the opponents overpass ?

Well we have been thinking about it all day and that is the best idea we have for it now, besides going on the other side and pulling it off as we still move, but hopefully they will be making an update on that rule, but I spotted it in other places in the rules also, in the section talking about the opponents home stretch , so that kind of makes me think its set in stone that way . |
Re: How do you get your other ball
As far as we have seen, there is nothing to stop a robot from using a trackball to dislodge another trackball, as long as your height does not reach above 6 feet in the opposing alliance's home stretch, and as long as your robot does not cross into the zone if attempting to dislodge from the other quadrant. (Great job with the math GBIT! We came to the same answer!)

Re: How do you get your other ball
As the rules currently read, I really don't see any problem with going 3/4 the way around the track (passing your finish line, the 1st lane marker, and the opponent's finish line, but NOT the 2nd lane marker) turning around and knocking your second ball off the overpass.
The rules currently say that it is LEGAL to move clockwise as long as you don't break the plane of any of the 4 dividing lines (<G22>) AND you leave enough room for other robots to pass (<G40>). So, it should be legal to turn around after passing the opponent's finish line, and knocking the ball off WITHOUT any part of the robot crossing the plane of the opponent's finish line. Other than that, I don't see any way that a robot can legally remove the 2nd ball; and yes, the forklift-bot in the animation did break <g36>, as the rules currently read. |
