Who said that you can't line up your robot exactly facing forward?
I thought the general rule was that you couldn't come on the field with tape measure and other measuring tools to precisely position your robot. Other than that, you can place it however you want. That is the whole point. Last year, you could aim your robot "exactly" facing toward the corner or center goal so you could score.
