We went to the Dallas Regional, here are some things I noticed.
- Defense is brutal. Your robot needs to be robust. Cantilevered intakes and other appendages will get beat up/broken.
- Also, referees/field crew really need to learn not to put balls back into play after you score two in autonomous. Resulted in a field fault because we did a two ball auto and they told our inbounder to put them back in resulting in 2 red balls in play.
- Field crew and referees need to not bump or reflect balls back into play. Again, a field fault.
- Pedestal delays, not during our matches but In other matches it happened. Field fault.
Overall this week went well I believe, less penalties but they are still to high in value.
