It's called "missed shot". Think about this scenario: A robot is parked by the Launchpad's Hopper, draining shots like crazy, and gets hit by an opponent, changing the aim. Suddenly Fuel is hitting Rotors and dropping into the Airship.

That would also be why G25 specifies "intentionally".


Just about any method that I can think of violates S03, G25, and/or G26.
