Re: Team Update #1

The change to <R18> is the one that irked me...

"The Trailer Hitch must be located on the BUMPER PERIMETER of the ROBOT structure..."

Our Design Team was looking at mounting the Hitch further in the base of the robot, pulling the trailer tight against the rear bumpers of the robot, making the trailer a little more controllable (if you can really say that with this game). Now, THAT'S out the window!

Well, as long as the GDC gets rid of <G14> and they don't limit our creativity anything further, I can at least get them to stop being annoyed at the whole thing...me too, for that matter.
