Since lifting provides 30 points, while parking is only 10, I think it is safe to say that teams that CAN lift WILL lift instead of parking. Robots themselves will most likely be parked, and many teams will build a robot that can lift other robots. If an alliance has one robot that lifts a goal and the other robot, who is also holding a goal, then the total score I believe is 110 points. Finally, most teams I think will attempt to score at least one ball in the center (if they did not in autonomous) since that first ball will score 180 points. (Can someone tell me I'm wrong? This seems awfully high )
1. The ramp is "off the Floor", so teams will simply park rolling goals and their robots on the ramp.
2. From the game manual:
Quote:
Ball Height – The measurement from the bottom of the Ball Tube to the top of the uppermost Ball in the Ball Tube, i.e. the height of the stack of Balls in the Ball Tube. This is used when calculating the Score for a Goal.
Quote:
6 points for each cm of Ball Height for Balls Scored In the Center Goal.
Therefore, the 1st ball is only worth 6pts time its height. The game animation was poorly worded regarding the scoring. (90 cm is 100% irrelevant except for the difficulties it presents in placing balls, leading to a higher scoring multiplier.)
