Starting position

[brian3795]

Trying to decipher the game rules for starting position. This is our take:

The bot starts facing your scoring pegs, with the rear bumper outside the line between your opponent's poles. IOW, your photo sensor is set up over a tracking line at the start of a match.

The ubertube is already in place on the bot before the match begins.

Initial bot placement is randomly determined by some method, so you won't know whether or not you'll have to deal with the split tracking line until the time of the match.

Are we close?
