Thumbs up Re: outposts

Coming from a former baseball player of the past 15 years. Yes people in the outpost will have a harder time getting the rocks into opposing teams trailers. But you will see an increase in the range they are thrown from the outpost if the human player throws across his body. So a right handed persons strong area will be his left side of the field and the vice versa for a left handed person. Most of the power from sonme one throwing the ball comes from the rotation from the hips and be strapped into a chair certianly takes away most of that ability. You will see that over time of the game the balls from the outpost will start to fall shorters as the match goes on do the the wear on the arm.

Re: outposts

what i was wondering is will the outposts be allowed to throw during autonomous.... because if they can if you don't move during autonomous they will fill the enemy robot that is sitting in front of them no sweat...

Re: outposts

I would assume that reasonable accommodations would be made. I'm not sure what they would be; ask the Q&A about that one.
