At kick off, Dave Lavery said (and I misquote) that, if two robots were "stacked" the top robot takes on the attributes of the bottom robot. Ie. if the bottom robot is on the ramp, then so is the top one. If the bottom robot is off the ramp, then so is the bottom one.
In the event that a robot fragments, the "robot" is considered to be the part that contains the robot controller.
Hence, if a bot "splits" and the bit that contains the robot controller ends up on a robot that is on the ramp, both robots should count as being on the ramp. (I suspect that they will clarify to make this illegal, however.)
But, you could imagine a "mouse bot" that is everything except the robot controller. Put the RC part on your partner who drives on the ramp. Your 120lb "mouse bot" can go have a ball and not worry about getting back to the ramp.
