Re: Hopper Capacity

You can easily get all the balls. Just imagine... at the start of the round there are 60 balls (10 in each robot) on the field and 20 in the human stations. The robots shoot or dump them, and eventually the balls end up in the human player's hands, and are then thrown back onto the field. Every single ball will probably at one point be rolling around on the ground. And at that moment, a robot with a huge ball capacity goes up and eats it. Hence, you can get all the balls if you are VERY VERY lucky. Or if you just EMP the other robots. But thats not ok last time I checked.

My prediction is that if a team tries hard enough, they can probably get half the balls.
