Is more than one of them a launcher? If we need to score low, we plan on just reversing our intake, so we technically have multiple scoring mechanisms.

I think he may be referring to a modular shooter robot that can be a short robot that scores in the high goal or a tall robot that shoots in the high goal based on alliance partner's robots. It was one of our ideas at one point early on in the season but ultimately gave it up.
