Tetras already on your robot are considered part of your robot, therefore a human player cannot touch the tetras with his hands because a human player cannot touch the robot... BUT a human player can use the tetra he left his station with to manipulate his robot and tetras that may be on the robot, so a skilled human player may be able to get the other teams tetra off by using the tetra he's holding, if he knows what he is doing.

Re: Capping a Team Legal?

GP is extremely simple in regards to the actual game: Don't intentionally damage another robot. Hindering another robots function is fine, unless there is a chance that it will cause damage, where damage is defined as anything that would require repair post-match to restore functionality. If some team has a pole-like lift mechanism that I know won't retract fully if a tetra slides down it, I would have no issue capping them to prevent them from grabbing tetras off the ground. Would it be worth the trouble? Probably not.

Re: Capping a Team Legal?

Has any team thought of a way to remove the tetra off your robot in case it does get capped(other than the skilled human player)? Some kind of mechanism near the most vulnerable spot to pull/push the tetra off your robot?

Re: Capping a Team Legal?

No one can cap our tetras if they are on the arm(yay for claws). If they cap them on our tetra holder we can just grab the tetra and fling it off.

Is capping other robots arms legal?

If a enimy robot has a arm with an actuating joint and i put a tatra on it so it can no longer function, assuming it does not break, is that legal?
