At IRI...
At the end of the match, when the balls and the robots come to rest, if the red alliance robot is touching the red ball placed on the overpass, then the bonus points do not count.
During the
FIRST season...
This determination was made at the sound of the buzzer at the end of the match. If the red robot was touching the red ball at that sound, it did not count. If it was not touching at the time of the buzzer, the ball would count regardless of where the robot came to rest.
