In the manual, it states for the arena wall(player wall) is 7 feet high 3 feet diamond base...is the height 7 feet with 4 foot glass and 3 foot base, or 10 total feet(7 foot glass + 3 foot base)?

The wall is a total of 7 feet tall. It has a 3 foot diamond plate base and then the 4 foot acrylic top.

I think it's seven feet tall, 3 feet diamond.
FIRST works hard at gviing EVRYONE a chance, regardless of diasbility and suchlike.
The vertically challanges, like myself, should at least be able to reach the controls.

Ok, thank you. I was wondering about those because of the human player shooting.
