Re: Team Update #18

At Chesapeake, the only bot I saw touch the plate and not trigger the tower were slow minibots that either didn't exert the required force or ran out of time (I am not sure which was the case).

There was a case in QF 2-1 where our Minibot was the the first to reach the top but the lights on the tower turned off. The rest of the towers lit up with 4 lights, 3 and 2 when the next 3 minibots hit. We still got the 30 pts for first so I guess they looked at the triggers in FMS and the lights just malfunctioned.
