This is a good example to point out that the "official" screen video is a record of what happens on the field, not for artful closeup shots. Here it is, only a few weeks after the fact and we have no idea who or how those nine points were scored. Before I looked at the video, I wondered -- did a single robot kick six balls? Or maybe six robots kick nine? Now I am still wondering. No record to show it.
Sorry for getting on my soapbox, David. It's not your fault. I really would have liked to see how it was done.

To end on a more positive note, to kick a ball was a simple autonomous task, yet did take a lot of work to pull off. The robots that were able to kick three balls in the far zone, jump the bump, and kick two more were great. |
I agree with you. It made me so sad, to see teams just skipped it. If the GDC wanted there to not be an Autonomous, we would go straight into Tele-Opp...
I've expressed this before, but what is worse is when your team tells you thats its usually the last thing taken care of..... Makes me really sad
I'm sorry but without the Autonomous In my oppion (I know this is not Dictionary Definition) it is just once big RC car.
Sorry for also being on the Soap Box but this just really gets to me.
