Re: Advantage given by succesful autonomous mode
Ahhh... the beauty of an exponential series...

ANY tube you put up there has the potential to double your score. It doesn't matter whether it is the first... in auto mode... or the last.

What you do in auto mode doesn't just ADD to what you do in driver mode... it multiplies it. In matches between top alliances it may turn out to be one of the most important auto modes FIRST has devised so far.

And I don't think you need to use the camera to score in auto, either. Sensors, obviously... the camera, no.
