Go to Post I'm sure there are many people out there who check their rep screen every 20 minutes in hope of positive reinforcement in a unique community, where they may not get positive reinforcement for sharing information in their home, school, or robotics program. - Eugenia Gabrielov [more]

That's a lot of fuel

It just occurred to me: There will be a lot of fuel on the field.

Once the hoppers are dumped, 560 Fuel:
100 Fuel (50 on each side) waiting to be dumped through the loader
300 fuel (50 per bot) moving around the field, or being dumped/shot into the Boiler. Note: Once a bot dumps its load into the boiler, by the time it picks up more fuel, the Boiler will have processed dumped fuel. So you are not likely to have fuel in the bot and boiler at the same time.

That leaves 160 fuel rolling around on the field. Even allowing for 50 overflow on each side, that is 60 fuel rolling around the field.

What's the strategy for dealing with excess fuel behind the Alliance Wall? Do you just dump it on the field? That's better than letting the other alliance dump the overflow fuel into their robots at their Alliance wall.
