Re: Maximum Number of Capped Tetras?

Edit:- Total number of small tetras stacked, during the duration of a match(could be stacked on various goals)
During the two minutes of the match, an efficient robot will be able to place more than 7 on goals I think, if they have everything going for them. This also assumes that most of the tetras will be placed on goals near the loading zones, not on the other side of the field (I think a team could get maybe 3 on the other side of the field, with robots playing defense).

The maximum height of a stack on a goal, I think no more than three or four because the stacks start to get very high, and most teams will be incapable of making an arm that can go high enough without tipping their robots over. These tetras are 9 lbs after all.
