Re: Beware of R16 your robot design may be too big.

It said it must fit within an 80" cylinder, it never said where the center was.

so by the wording you could have a robot quite a bit larger than you thought, however this'll probably be fixed.

So yes, for now, it does not say that the center of the 'bot is the center of the cylinder, just that it has to fit IN the cylinder. Nifty circumvention, but I wouldn't bet on it.
