Re: Tipped robot

Illegal, as per [G27]:

Quote:
Deliberate or damaging contact with an opponent Robot on or inside its Frame Perimeter is not allowed.
Violation: Technical-Foul and potential Yellow Card
Unless you can right the opponent purely through their bumpers and apendages, the rules disallow this. It's a toss up as to whether the refs would actually call it though. While I think they probably wouldn't let the rules interfere with GP, righting a robot without its owners' consent is not an ok thing to do. You could damage the 'bot even more, especially depending upon the style manipulator you use to do the righting and what you 'determine' is a structural component of their bot. On your own alliance, the fallen can actually talk and direct the righter and stop them if necessary, while no such communication exists among opponents.

Don't do it unless you know for sure everybody's OK with it.

Protip: You'll never know for sure who's OK with it.
