I just wrote a 500 word rant but 'busy server' canceled that abridged version
I understand that safety is paramount to first, which I guess makes sense in having the loading zone location........ dot dot dot.....(although there are several guidelines for the field attendents when replenishing the loaders
)..
All of us thought without thinking otherwise that the footprint would suffice as being in the triangle.. having a change that was against .. intuition?.. so late is almost irresponsible.. if FIRST intended for that to be the rule from the get-go.. they should have specified..A normal course of action would be to ammend their previous intentions by allowing what we as a community had believed.. and sense we are all playing with the same rules.. nobody suffers and nobody gains...their solution presently is to either contact with a wheel..(which gives slight problems to robots without turntables) or build something that touches the ground.. which isn't reasonable now with the robots fed-ex'd -- I hope FIRST comes around.. or explains the reason for the rule.. Before you slam the reputation button until your fingers blead give some constructive critisism or thoughts or anything.
