Re: How many balls will you shoot during autonomous?

Then shooting more than two balls (or even two balls) during autonomous is an ambitious task...since you can't possess more than one ball at a time, and you can't shoot boulders over the outer works, this would entail:

1. Passing through the outer works
2. Shooting (and perhaps scoring)
3. Going back through the outer works
4. Collecting another boulder
5. Crossing the outer works for a third time
6. Shooting (and perhaps scoring)

I don't mean to be a pessimist, but I have strong doubts anyone's going to try to do that in 15 seconds.
