A simple way of getting around gyros and reflective tape to find your position, if indeed auton was moved to the end of the game, would be to position yoour robot in a specifc spot and then run a certain auto program. For example, if this were applied to last year's game, then you could program the robot to drive ontop of the ramp and run, say program number 5, to have the robot drive 5 feet past the end of the ramp, turn left and into a stack (the stack would be there, other wise you would have run a different program).

There are many problems with this, but atleast its a simple solution. The first problem being that your referance point could be blocked by a robot, or you may not want to give up your KOTH position. 2nd, there most likely would be a robot gaurding the stack.

I'm curious to see how big tracking/triangluation routines would be. Lest be forget, once you find out where you are, you have to figure out your oriantation and move somewhere. While moving, sweep for any robots that could be in the way. I think that you would be very much straped for program space. Think about how you would do it if you where in an place in the scoring zone and wanted to climb up the rap to get an additional 25 points.
