It sounds kind of humorous where a bot can push a rolling goal over a cliff! That of course is in direct violation of rule <SG9> where you cannot intentionally tip over a rolling goal. I don't know how a bot can push a rolling goal over the mountain or a cliff without this happening.

Looks like pushing a rolling goal is unavoidable due to where their starting positions are on the field.

now, what if you wanted to push you own goal to the other side so you din't need to keep going back and forth to score......
