Re: Game Terms for Quick Communication
I've merged the list I've been using in my head with yours: - Cap a stack - put an RC (aka a can) on top of a scored stack
- Fully capped - capped, with litter in/on the RC
- Pre-Cap - put an RC atop a stack before it's scored
- Up-capper - a robot that caps with a vertical RC
- Down-capper - a robot that caps with a horizontal RC
- Miner - robot that takes totes from the landfill and stacks them
- Chuter - robot that takes totes from the human player station and stacks them
- Toter - robot that can take totes from anywhere and stack them
- Grabber - robot that takes bins from the step
- Auto-grabber - robot that takes bins from the step in autonomous
- Auto-stacker - robot that scores an Auto Stack of yellow totes
- Noodler - robot with device or technique to efficiently get noodles into cans
- Litterer (or chucker) - HP who's efficient at getting noodles past the landfills
- Processor - A robot that processes litter
- Tote-Flipper - a robot that can score inverted totes, either inverted or by flipping them
- Tether-Bot - a robot with two or more separate chassis, connected by a tether
- Bird Farm - a robot with one or more tethered quadcopters or other flying chassis
- Sprawler - a robot that takes up a lot of real estate, and not just a tether
- Top-stacker - a robot that builds stacks by placing new totes on top
- Bottom-stacker - a robot that builds stacks by placing new totes on the bottom (or by putting a built stack atop a single tote)
- ??? - robot that can make a cooperation stack
- ??? - full scoring auto
- Snaking? - moving the robot around the scoring platforms, in a way that alliance partners need to be aware
- Inside stacker - the robot stacks game pieces (mostly) within its wheel base
- Outside stacker - the robot stacks game pieces outside its wheel base
- Squatter - the robot has no drive train
- Fork lift - lift has forks that extend out from the chassis and goes around the game pieces
- Side lift - lift gets game pieces from one side; does not go around
- Cargo lift - lift gets game pieces from all sides, or from two opposite sides inside the robot
- ??? - any others you guys can come up with?
