Re: [Official 2007 Game Design] Autonomy And Other Technology Discussions

If the field is as open as this years was, then during autonomous could there be a max Feet Per Second rule? The max FPS could be 8-10 FPS or something, but that all depends on the game and the field setup. I was watching web cast's of qualifying matches of Nationals and in three straight matches my teams robot was knocked over in autonomous. In the first two of those matches it looked like there should of been a high speed ramming called. Later, threw some communication with team members at Nationals, I found that anything goes in autonomous, even high speed ramming. I really haven't talked to anyone in person since before Nationals, so I might be interpreting it wrong and please correct me if I am. It's really hard for teams to stay encouraged when you tip over three straight matches.
