Bumper and Min + Max

[EricH]

Well... sort of.

Not a Bumper: There is nothing saying that you can't have a structure in there that is built like a Bumper. However, you cannot count it as a Bumper. It won't count towards the 8". The reason is that it's not on the Frame Perimeter.

Not OK (bottom): There isn't a bumper there, and there needs to be 8" of bumper because it's next to a corner of the Frame Perimeter.

Not OK (right): It's "Not OK" because the bumper is too short (< 8"), and the frame it's mounted to is too short for a full bumper, but the Frame Perimeter is clearly longer than 8".


Bear in mind I'm looking at the most recent version of that image, which was in today's Team Update.

Correct?

[EricH]

That looks like the right image. So the "Not OK" flags are for no bumper where there should be one and a bumper that is too short (and on a frame section that is too short to support a full 8"+ bumper).

Not a bumper also means that it is part of the robot for the purposes of weight, costing, bag & tag rules, and so on.
