I love the idea of 12 ball endgame, and catching your own truss should be worth something. We played many practice matches with just random balls and it was a hoot to watch!

Unlimited ball auton, nice idea. All those balls need to be cleared before assists can start though.

I also like the idea of some risk in shooting the ball outside of HP's reach, weather foul points, or inbounded back at the original inbound location. If HP needs to leave the box, the ball goes back to the start and assist points are removed.

Also, human inbounding to opponent's robot should not be a foul for the robot.
