The computer then calculates the "best" configuration and awards the assist points if the ball is scored.
But as per the rules, an assist should be shown (meaning, the lights above the goals should be lit up) if a robot is passing the ball to a robot in a different zone than the zone they are in, not passing the ball to robots in the same zone, which is what was happening.
