This could also be a hazard to pilots... Warning to all human players this year: Watch your step!

Get the fuel pushed away from the bots quickly so removal can happen safely.


I'm also thinking of making a couple of exactly sized boxes to dump fuel into that measures out 50 of them for easy *counting* to put back in the hopper containers. Just fill the box and dump it in. Trying to come up with ways to make my field reset crew jobs a little easier and the new CNC Router that will be mounted in the garage this weekend will need something to work on.
A push broom or a big dust mop might work if they would slide on the carpet..
