Re: Autonomous end game
I do not think autonomous at the end of the game is very practical. I would be a big fan if the GDC was some how able to make it possible without having to jump over canyons.
The thing that is so great about autonomous is that it is very consistent, and you do not have to deal with too many elements when you are positioning your robot in the very beginning of the match and when you are choosing where to score. If you made autonomous at the end, you would have to some how waste seconds of your teleoperated period to set yourself up, or have to work harder and incorporate more sensors to where all of your sensors work together and get the task accomplished.
Add an extra autonomous period at the end - Sure.
Move the autonomous period to the end - NO.
I'm for it, but I don't see it very likely. But than again, the game will be different next year, so all the variables are completely different.
