Re: Banging the driver station

To me I don't think its worth a yellow card.

There are so many reasons why a robot could smash into the DS wall in this game without it being "attempting to damage the opponent's DS" which is the only thing worthy of a yellow card.

What if the code is off? What if I sensor fails or gives a wrong reading? What if it's a rookie team that has no sensors and was just guessing?

In teleop it seems to me that most of the time teams are running into the wall because they can't see whats going on and its much easier to hear that you hit something and turn to low goal then it is to hope your close enough that you don't run into the invisible barrier on the batter and beach yourself.

I don't think anyone is trying to attack other driver stations. It just comes with the "violence" (not in a negative way) of this game
