Re: Week 0 Discussion

It is very easy for robots to drive on top of and get caught on stray balls on the field.

The dividers on the Batter are clear and impossible to see from the driver's station. Almost every team attempting to challenge or even score in the low goal struggled to avoid them.

The Drawbridge is far flimsier than we expected, so teams that are practicing with plywood should either build a new one out of polycarbonate or be prepared to make adjustments at competitions.

One last very important note: Queueing and field reset is very challenging and time consuming due to shuffling of defenses. Please be patient with the event staff and honor their requests. A lot of thought has gone into the logistics between each match and they are doing the best they can, especially at events with limited space.

Drive teams must be in the queuing area two matches prior to their own in order to select defenses for their match.
