Putting two and two together...

Hmm, 10 points per 15 seconds of autonomous? Assuming that there will be 2 minute matches, a team can earn 80 points by spinning in circles for 2 minutes. We never got 80 points (not QPs) last year! It would definatley be a really neat challange, but could get very boring if the auton is dead reckoning. As I had said before in another thread, programming a triangulation routine (as well as oriantation) would be quite something, and I honestly don't think it would fit in the RAM, let alone the A.I. Perhaps if you had it at the end of the heat, with the choice of doing 15/30 seconds of auton for a multiplier or, say 25+ points, then it would prove for a much more interesting game. Looking back on last year's game, teams could either enter auto for a muliplier or defend thier stack or try to climb the ramp (the later would make thier stack vulnerable and could allow the game score completely if that stack was knocked over.).

Thats my $0.02 PLN.
