Re: Are you considered in the homestretch if?
From what I am reading, it seems that the disscussion is of descoring an opposing trackball....
The best way to prevent that is to play some simple defence in a quadrant to prevent the robot from ever having the opourtunity to put it there.
If disloging becomes neccessary, then it can be done in the quadrant next to the opposing home stretch, as long as your robot doesnt cross the plane. (The ball will stick out some for you. For the actual distances, see someone's mathematical deductions elsewhere on the site.)
