Re: Carpet difference or not...?

In our tests the carpet provided a small (but noticeable) traction advantage, but not too much. It ought to be enough to defend against pinning, and robots which are on the carpet ought to be able to push robots which aren't. It will probably be a factor, but not a gigantic one.

Do you have the Regolithe? Because you can just test that with the wheel, and once again, it is very noticably different. The carpet was put where it is so that robots can not be pinned very easily.
