Re: Slow Climbers + Fast Pyramid Shooters

This is a great point, and one we considered in our design as a dedicated climber.
We plan to climb the side of the pyramid, not the front or back, to make it easier for our operators. Due to the slim profile of our robot, even though we'll be on the inside, we won't be blocking too much space.
For robots that climb the outside of the pyramid, if their teammates are shooting through the pyramid, they will be clear.
