Anyway, I think the game is quite complex and has some really big flaws. I don't do FTC, so I don't know how achievable finding the IR sensor will be, but I suspect that especially at early events, teams will be awarded the 50 point bonus based on whether or not they were lucky enough to run an autonomous routine to the right randomly selected peg row or not. That kind of massive variation in point values for something that could be done based on luck could potentially really unbalance the game.

This is my first year doing FTC and after reading a lot of the mentor manual and the game manual... Plus my experience with FRC I think it will be pretty easy to find that IR module... From there it is only testing the autonomous program until it works. I've taught a lot of classes with the NXT software to elementary school students so I think and the sensor we can use that connects directly to the NXT brick will make this task quite easy.
