Re: Stair-Step Bumper Design - Legality of Tetris-style bumpers

<R07L> might be giving a list of the permitted ways to have bumper segments meet, of which the stairstep design is not one. Or it might be giving examples of ways to do it, and not restricting other designs. I won't guess as to which interpretation the GDC intended.

What does "bending outward from the bumper zone" mean? I was referring to possibly bending up and/or down. The BUMPER ZONE is defined by a vertical measurement from the floor of the field.
