Re: Violations not being Penalized Properly at Competition

Chris, I believe this is the rule you are referring to.

"<G33> ....(Exception: if a ROBOT should break the planes of the vertically projected borders of the opponent’s LANES during the AUTONOMOUS PERIOD, it will have a "grace period" to remedy the situation at the beginning of the TELEOPERATED PERIOD; the grace period will be either 5 seconds or until an opponent ROBOT enters the LANE – whichever comes first.)"

Kyle, sorry about that wayward auto mode, it was completely unintentional. Since our claw failed to deploy it did not trigger our bottom magnetic switch to tell the robot to stop once the arm is fully retracted. We are putting in a fail safe for DC.

I believe the flag was for the center line infraction.
