Go to Post I found another student once at a Cross Country meet because she was wearing a team shirt. I must say, I was surprised. I should start wearing my team shirt around more often. - TheBoulderite [more]

Re: Shooting Vs. Time hanging 30

Add to this 1 4 frisbee run during the last 30 seconds of a match and you are equal to the pts scored by a lifter.

If you add capabilities to each robot(dumper to lifter and 10pt lift to shooter) it gets a little bit more interesting. The dumper can now score 50 pts just by lifting and dumping + 6pts in auton(50+6=56). However the shooter can score 18pts in auton + 12 pts in the last 30 seconds of a match + 10 pt lift(18+12+10=40). The question is whether the risk of a 3lvl lift is worth the high risk, whether your team has the capability to build a lifter, and whether the extra time spent of lifting could be better utilized by shooting.

For example, an intake(mainly for auton) has a huge benefit to a shooter. It potentially increases the score of a shooter by up to 24 pts(4 frisbees in auton). This game is truly about taking a side based on the capabilities of your team and the risk they are willing to take.
In this game your robot could have the best functions that never work because of poor drivers, and good driver will make a bad robot better like always but I believe this year it will be a lot about your teams driver practice and how good they really are.
