Missed Inbounder Assists

At 2:08? Wow that was impressively quick.

I think the problem is that you have to recognize that refs are human. To be honest, at a quick look you could have easily seen that and thought the human player inbounded and the robot didn't "catch it", or that the HP completely missed and it bounced off to the floor. (Looking at the video I do see that it went through the robot and the wheels spit it out and should be an assist as far as I can tell).

To make it more obvious and not have to wait an undue amount of time, I'd change slightly:

1- Have the HP inbound the ball and then have your driver enable the ejector wheels.

2- Inbound the ball, move a small bit and then eject.

Either should only add ~1second and make it more obvious it's a possession. An extra second would be worth the extra points to make it clear, and I agree waiting for the light 5-10 seconds is probably not worth it.
