Re: Is FRC giving high CG robots a free pass on defense?

I wonder how GDC would go about coming up with more definite rules for tipping. Right now it is obvious just by looking at the different of calls being made at events that the sketchy "Strategys aimed at" definition really does not fit the bill for calls that make or break event success for many teams.

I like the suggestion that robots have to pass some sort of tipping test where the robot has to be able to be tipped to a certain angle and doesn't fall over. This would at least make any call clear where the tip resulted from a t-bone.

Currently we are having the referees judge intent. There has to be a better way.
