Re: Intentionally blocking traffic in Hybrid

This update could spell real trouble for No Robot Left Behind - Hybrid. Say I'm a rookie or other under-mentored team and am having trouble getting my robot to move straight ahead in Hybrid but wanted to try to at least get to the 4 points for crossing our finish line.

Before this update I'd keep plugging away at it and if the robot only moved out to the end of the divider in one match, I'd say "well, we're half-way there" and keep plugging away at it. After this update, however, if we unintentionally blocked the opponent with this move we'd draw a yellow card. Do you think our robot will move in any more Hybrid periods? Not likely.
