Re: Squishing the Spiders

"Some teams even fouled up our autonomous by just programing their robots to drive forward and smash into the spiders, just to throw everything off course for us."

now that might seem smart at first, but I saw a video of one match out there where a bot tried that in autonomous and got caught on the spider. The bot ended up completely useless, off the ground, and hanging there for the whole game.
