Re: Rule <G30>

Please note:

"Section 7 – The Game, Rev D has been updated to include the following edits:
<G37> Permitted ROBOT to ROBOT Contact - Breakaway is a highly interactive game. Robust construction of ROBOTS will be very important in this high-speed competition. ROBOTS should be designed to withstand the contact that will occur during the MATCH. Appropriate contact is allowed under the following guidelines for which no PENALTY will be assigned:
Section 7 – The Game
a. b. c.
High speed accidental collisions may occur during the MATCH and are an expected part of the game.
Incidental contact, both inside and outside the BUMPER ZONE, is to be expected and is generally acceptable.
Contact outside the BUMPER ZONE is an expected part of the game during the following scenarios:
i. for ROBOTS on a RAMP or BUMP,
ii. for ROBOTS that have been tipped and are not attempting to right themselves,
iii. for ROBOTS that have exceeded their NORMAL CONFIGURATION volume to right themselves or an ALLIANCE partner as permitted by Rule <G30> and have either exceeded the 10-second grace period permitted by Rule <G32> or completed the righting operation,
for ROBOTS that have exceeded their NORMAL CONFIGURATION volume to interact with a BALL as allowed by Rule <G30-a>, and
for ROBOTS in the process of being ELEVATED or SUSPENDED prior to the FINALE.
iv. v.
Please note that a ROBOT that is ELEVATED before the FINALE is not protected from contact by opponent ROBOTS. Any FIELD damage or BALL RETURN damming caused by the ELEVATED ROBOT before the FINALE will be considered the fault of the ELEVATED ROBOT, regardless of whether or not the motion originated with an opponent ROBOT."

From update 4 I believe.
