Re: Odd Autonomous Rules
It looks like there will be a lot of low scoring autonomous periods. I would say it would almost be impossible for a single 'uber' bot score a container set or tote stack in 15 seconds autonomously, but then I didn't think anyone would be able to score three balls high single handed last year. I think it wold be hard to have two robots in teleop grabbing three crates and stacking them in the autozone to do it in 15 seconds. Likewise If you were a container handler with a telescoping arm, even grabbing two containers from the step and moving them would be tough to do in 15 seconds. Ask yourself is it possible to do it in teleop in 15 seconds, before trying to do it in autonomous. The issue is the placement of crates and containers make it hard to get to either quickly.
But ---- you guys are all cleverer then me. I think the safest bet is to make sure you have a good 'move forward 12 feet strategy' that will work from any orientation, and share it with those rookie box bots that can only push a crate on a good day. One of the things that really annoyed me from last year were the number of teams that never even moved at all during autonomous.
