Re: Summer Design Competition 2015

Quote:
The match begins with a fifteen second AUTONOMOUS period... Teams get additional points for every robot that is in their ALLIANCE ZONE located between their alliance HOOPS and the opposing ALLIANCE WALL at the end of the autonomous period.
This description of the alliance zone does not appear to match what is depicted in the linked image of the field.

Quote:
G7: During Auto, teams may not cross the white CENTERLINE. Also, teams who start in contact with their KEEPER ZONE must remain in contact with it until the AUTONOMOUS period is over.
If images of the field are correct in their placement of the alliance zones, it seems like this rule would make it impossible to get the autonomous points for being in your zone.

If the field drawings are not correct, it seems like the flow of the game would not work properly... so it looks as though something is up...

Is there something that I'm missing?

P.S. Super cool game! I love the concept! It reminds me a lot of 2013, but a lot more craziness.
