recycle rush full strategy

[blturner]

Did I read the rules wrong? Can we feed from the human station during auto?
A three stack from the feeder station should be easy enough. I think it makes a two stack with just the drop.
Picking up the totes from there known locations on the floor does not seem to hard. The new ROBO Rio has the accelerometer built in. Add a gyro and your most the way there.
Everyone should plan on carrying multiple totes at the same time. Everyone should plan more than one auto so that you can stay out of the way of your alliance mates.

I don't think I am overly optimistic, but I may be overly hopeful.

You would need to cross the starting line to feed from the human player station. So that is not allowed.

G19 During AUTO, DRIVE TEAMS must remain behind the STARTING LINE and may not contact the OPERATOR CONSOLE, unless for personal or equipment safety.

I believe you are allowed to move the totes towards, or push them into the human player station area though.

Agreed. I haven't seen a rule stating that you can't move totes toward the human player station once auto starts. My post was only in regards to trying to actually feed in auto.

Right now, our full strategy is to spend a lot of time aligning our robot with game pieces, so we can pick them up, then drop them accidentally.

Might not win many matches, but we feel it is something that our robot should be able to accomplish well.
