Re: Passing the boulder

An in depth look at how you may pass through the outer works without crossing, or violating the rules. Say you have a passing robot and a receiving robot.

The passing robot is partly in the neutral zone and partly in the outer works.
The receiving robot is partly in the courtyard, and partly in the outer works.

Rule G40 states A ROBOT may not cause a BOULDER to move from the NEUTRAL ZONE into the opponent’s COURTYARD unless...

There is no rule about causing a Boulder to move solely from the neutral zone into the outer works.
[This is the rule-legal task of the Passing robot]

There is also no rule about causing a boulder to move solely from the outer works into the courtyard.
[This is the rule-legal task of the Receiving robot]

Because the receiving bot manipulates the boulder within the outer works, it is the cause of the boulder entering the opposing courtyard, and thus, the passing bot is not the cause of a BOULDER mov[ing] from the NEUTRAL ZONE into the opponent’s COURTYARD
Under these conditions, the pass is in compliance of rule G40.

G41 also states that during each CROSSING, a ROBOT may not cause more than one (1) BOULDER to move from the NEUTRAL ZONE into the opponent’s COURTYARD. Because neither robot ever has to cross (you only have to CROSS because of rule G40) , they can pass as many boulders as they want, with no limit.
