Re: Walls on Practice Field

Kate already mentioned we didnt have walls, but what we actually missed was having a full floorspace, as our robot can autonomously cross 3+ lines, and even once knocked both balls off the overpass, without a full field its hard to test a lot of this, without chopping code up.

My thought to the regional committees would be to talk to all your local teams, if you have the space in your venue, see what they can lend you. We had a full field set up for our preship event, and being made of PVC and metal piping, was transportable... Maybe teams and the planning committees could work closer together to get full setups available at the regionals... it would reduce cost and provide more value IMO.
