I would like to see more replicated field parts, that are portable, like Zone Zeal's goals, and not like this year's central ramp structure. If your bot was a drivetrain bot last year, you didn't have to build anything. If it moved balls, you bought soccer balls. If it captured a goal or two, you built goals.

This year, unless your bot was meant ONLY to go under the bar (or stay on the opposing side) you had to test it on a ramp structure, which wasn't TOO hard, but factor in the wire mesh and the HDPE, and that's a steep testing field cost.
