Make sure your robot is touching the colored triangle in the human player and or manual loading station. We were over top of the area straddling the triangle but noting was touching because we have a 2.5" ground clearance, but this problem was easily fixed with zip ties. But if the human player doesn't put the tetra on the robot and runs back with the tetra and allows the driver to correct it you won't get a penaltie but it takes up a lot of time to do so, so get it right the first time and you will have no problems. That was the most common penaltie for us.
