On defense, two of the robots can be over in the end near their alliance human players "defending" against the other robots. Why can't they block a corner corral and have their human player load balls over the wall into their hopper?
My 30' estimate for hiiting a person was in reference to the fact that humans, even the worst ones in the world, can throw or pass the balls to each other. If you can hit anything you want at 60 feet, you can hit the robot or the corner goal.
