Thanks for the input, and yes the scale is an issue. The simulation uses a modified version of Autodesk's field CAD model, but it imported in much larger than it should have, so it's been manually resized. The robot isn't to scale either, but I can either resize it manually or re-model it in Inventor and go through an identical conversion process which should get it to the same scale. Unity doesn't have a marked scale to speak of, I assume it's in meters.

I completely overlooked using the end walls as a measurement for the player height, thank you! I will update as soon as I can.

I should be able to implement scoring and ball recycling pretty easily as well, so that's another goal for the next update.
