Ramp Affecting Robot Movement
After watching the UTC Scrimmage, I noticed that many robots, when unsuccessful at getting on top of the HDPE, would slide down the steel mesh after power was shut off due to a lack of idle torque in their drive train. Well, if bins were on the steel mesh (not in scoring zone), would they be counted towards a team's match points if they were pushed into a scoring zone by a robot sliding down the ramp? If not, how will the judges differentiate the bins if a wide king of the hill robot happens to plow a field of bins down?
