Pyramid Goal Autonomous

So i just read in the rules that the tower goal is not worth points in autonomous mode. Is this true, or did i just read it wrong? Thanks, Team 4457

Re: Pyramid Goal Autonomous

You cannot get the colored disks in auto since they start in the feeder stations which your robot cannot get to nor can the human players throw them. Since they are the only disks that you can score for points in the pyramid, the pyramid goal is worth nothing in auto.

Pro-tip, read the manual more carefully during week 1 next year, I have a feeling that this might be a big problem for some teams....

Edit: Not saying that I'm a pro, but it is still a good tip

Re: Pyramid Goal Autonomous

you are correct, it's not worth points in auto. this is because the only frisbees available in auto are the white frisbees and the only frisbees that count for points in your pyramid goal are the colored (red or blue) frisbees that match your alliance color.
