Re: robot speed

I'm a little surprised that all the posts mentioned FPS. A measure of velocity and no body had an comments on acceleration. What good is a robot that has a top speed of XX fps if it takes the entire length of the playing field to reach that speed. A robot with a low top speed and very quick acceleration can be very useful in some games.
