Re: Can't retract to go under TUNNEL?

That doesn't answer the question, what that one means is that I'm not allowed to make a tiny robot that uses a kicker outside of the frame perimeter that'd still be inside the NORMAL CONFIGURATION.

Quote:
NORMAL CONFIGURATION – The physical configuration and orientation of the ROBOT when the MATCH is started.
This is the state of the ROBOT immediately before being enabled by the Field Management System
, before the ROBOT
takes any actions, deploys any mechanisms, or moves away from the starting location. This configuration is static, and does
not change during a single MATCH (although it may change from MATCH to MATCH).
That'd mean that you are allowed to retract vertically as this applies only to pre-match configuration. The it may change from match to match section is probably for cases where the team choses to have a hardware switch for which alliance they are on for autonomous mode or something similar.
